i4, iX, i5 and i7...I have used a Level II Chargepoint charger in our home garage. 100% perfect.

My dealer gave me a brand new BMW Wallbox Charger and it is installed and "working".

2nd time now, I plug in using the Level II BMW Wallbox and the charger illuminates blue, the inside of the charge port turns white, the main instrument panel in the car shows the car is plugged in, but the charger never blinks blue when active charging, the inside of the charge port does not blink blue and the instrument panels does not reflect active charging

I unplug the BMW Wallbox and plug back in, and then the inside of the charge port turns red and the car's instrument panel turned red and says Unable to Charge.

I once again unplug the BMW Wallbox and then plug in....and everything is fine. Blinking blue, instrument panel in car showing active charging, etc...

Anyone else experience this?

Hey Deutsch - I saw that there was a separate discussion about the wallbox over in the iX forum. It turned out that the installer did not flip the right dip switch to enable open access charging - any chance you have the same issue?

Thanks RichardInCA

I can check, but most of the time when I plug in using the BMW Wallbox, it starts charging right away. I'd think if this switch is not in the correct place for open access charging, I would get the fault every time. No?

Ahhh, sorry, I thought you meant the 2nd time you’d tried using it not the 2nd time you’d had this problem.
