... Out of my own curiosity does anyone now how long the charger is out for if it has the temp error? Does it need to be serviced, reset or simply cool down?
If the unit trips on temp error it needs to have the filter(s) cleaned.
There are some fairly easy to service primary filters and some internal filters that require special trained technician for service.
Should NOT be used any more until they are cleaned.
But unfortunately that did not happen at many dealers.
Unit would cool down and start working. Not sure how long cool down took as it never happened while charging my LEAF.
But with multiple thermal cycles the components eventually fail.
So in Chattanooga the $12,000 unit (which Nissan bought) needs a $5,000 repair.
Dealer won't pay and so far dealer hasn't gotten Nissan to do anything.
A lot of the Chattanooga unit tripping was when used by a Tesla.
The unit is 44 kW and with LEAF use rarely operated at 44 kW for more than five minutes.
But with Tesla would sit at 44 kW for a long time and often trip on temperature.
Now it is dead and all we have in Chattanooga is L2.
All of the DCQC are broken and the only one that might be repaired is the one at Sears.
