Has anyone else had this issue? Periodically when I plug in a level 2 charger my R1 won’t start charging. I can hear the charge lock cycling trying to lock the cable to the car. In the app, I see the graphic cycle between plugged in and unplugged. I have to reseat the charger several time before it finally locks in place and starts the charge. All of fine after that. This happens on several L2 chargers.

Here is a link to video of the car cycling the charge port lock and the app status, it was too large to upload to the site.

I would check for debris or obstruction in your charge port. Avoid metallic objects to remove anything.
