GFCI (CCID) trip
If the Home Connector detects a ground
fault, the contactor will open and the front
panel’s red
PROTECTION
light will
illuminate. The system waits 13 minutes
after sensing a fault, then automatically
attempts recovery. After several such
attempts, the Home Connector will stay in
the
PROTECTION
mode and the red
PROTECTION
light will blink continuously.
If a ground fault error or an electric vehicle
connection error has been detected,
follow these steps:
1. Unplug the vehicle.
2. Inspect the connector and the vehicle’s
charge port to verify they are clean
and undamaged. If necessary remove
any accumulation of dust or dirt from
the charge port, or the cable
connector, using a clean dry or damp
cloth.
3. Plug the vehicle back in. If the fault
persists, contact Tesla Motors for
assistance.
Ground missing
When the Home Connector detects a
missing Service Ground (Earth
connection), the red
SERVICE
light on the
front panel will illuminate. The Home
Connector’s contactor will not close until a
proper Service Ground (Earth connection)
has been detected.
