I deleted all saved locations and then resaved HOME location and WORK location. I also deleted and resaved the location of my workshop as an ADDRESS BOOK entry and cleared/reentered charge timer settings.
I drove a few miles after all of this reprogramming, stopped at my workshop, and tried to charge. Charging started immediately and then stopped when I closed the driver door after opening it. This charge was at a time when the charge timers would prevent charging at home.
I arrived at home a few minutes before timer start time and plugged in the car. The charging indicator lights began blinking in sequence to show that the car was waiting to charge. Charging started automatically at programmed start time without incident. I locked/unlocked and opened/closed doors several times with no impact to charging.
Based upon all of my testing, I conclude the charging timers in my car work correctly at home. They also allow charging away from home without overriding except that charging stops when a door is closed after opening. Locking/unlocking seems to have no impact and doors can be opened, but charging stops when a door is closed. I plan to call the EV Customer Service line to discuss this issue. I also want to ask some questions about the navigation system concerning settings I could change on the older systems that I have been unable to change on the new system.
