I am at home (fortunately).
The car was charged up overnight.
When I began to unplug the charge connector today (normal 220V) I discovered it was stuck.
I have a professionally installed 220V charging station at home.
I have have had a Leaf for 7 years using this charger without a problem. I'm on my first year of a 3rd lease.
I carefully tried all the solutions in the manual. It does make various clicking and beeping noises as I followed the directions to release it. It really feels like it is physically jammed.
The manual even includes a description of how to manually force it to disconnect. But the directions were not clear and my attempt to follow them did not work out well. There was a screw awkwardly placed that I was supposed to turn "clockwise" (which was odd) to release it.
But the screw would not budge in either direction and I was worried I would strip it.
It is Friday night so I will have to wait until Monday to call the dealership.
I'm concerned that they might have to dismantle my charging station to be able to tow it in.
I hope not.
Any suggestions are welcome.
