Need Charging Help

[Kdblondie]

I just picked up my R1S yesterday and plugged it in to my Rivian wall charger last night but it didn't charge & I have no idea why. I had it scheduled to charge at midnight to 7:30 am. The wall charger was lit up white and my R1S was a solid blue. The app showed that it was plugged in but didn't say it was charging. Will the app show it's charging? What color should should the light on the Rivian be? What am I doing wrong?
One more question, can you also charge a Tesla with the Rivian wall charger? Thanks for any help

Blue indicates that it is waiting to charge, but is currently not in the permitted charging time window.

Double check your charging schedule.

Blue means waiting to charge due to schedule. Green means it's charging. I agree with seatosummit, check your schedule. Or turn off the schedule temporarily to see if it charges.

Thanks, will it show on the app when it's charging like the Tedla app?

Yes it's at the top of the app that you can click on then shows the current charging session.

use the adapter that comes with the tesla to charge it with your rivian charger.

It took me a while to figure out timed charging. It wasn’t intuitively obvious for me. Play around with the time window.

I don't have a Rivian charger (other than the one that comes with it) but we use our Lectron J1772 for our RAV4 Prime and the R1T. The RAV4 has an onboard scheduler we can set. The Rivian also has a scheduler that can be set. I do prefer the RAV4 Prime scheduler over the Rivian. On the RAV I can program when I am leaving and based on the amount of charge it needs to get full, it will start charging accordingly. I can also schedule different times. For example, on Monday I can go from midnight to 3, then maybe on Tuesday, I want 9 pm to midnight, etc. I wish Rivian could do that onboard.

I say all this to say:.....make sure you pick AM or PM. There have been many times on scheduling apps I picked 7 p.m. when I meant 7 a.m.
