I purchased the Lectron J1772 adapter to use at open Tesla stations as I think it’s going to be awhile before I receive the Rivian one. I went to what was described as an “open” station on the Tesla sight, but doesn’t come up on the Rivian nav map with the “adapter needed” filter selected. When I tried to charge (attempted on two different stations) it said “waiting on charger” on the screen. I called support and they were not very helpful. He said maybe try opening an account through Tesla.
I was going to go to a Tesla station that does come up on the Rivian app with the ”adapter needed” filter on, however, the Riv representative said that if you make three failed attempts to charge you have to reboot the car. Didn’t want to deal with that so I came home and plugged in again to reset.
To be fair, even though I’ve owned the Riv for over a year, this was my first attempt to try a public charger so certainly could be some operator error.
Are there chargers listed as open on the Tesla sight, but not really open to Rivian?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
