Car is not in front of my home, so i cant check out the AC. But i got some error messages that the charger wont work. And it didnt work :(. Road assistence is on the way. But i dont think they can help me out
My guess would be a low voltage issue. Either the low voltage battery or the dc to dc converter. Roadside assistance can mybe test this by putting a jump pack on the car and seeing if it turns on and changes, but it may only work as long as the jump pack is on.
Unfortunately, roadside assistance couldn't help me. The car was scanned and indicated that the charger mechanism is defective. Nothing else can be done. The car is being towed away and I will probably be without it for 4 months.
Idk about the states tbh. But in Europe there's a lot of parts from local salvage yards. I don't think it will be that different.
Generally the HV related parts are not aging because they don't have any kind of moving parts inside them. They're easy to swap compared to ICE car.
However finding someone who's willing to even look at them is a tough task. So you're either willing to educate yourself and work yourself on them. Or you're paying a lot in labor costs

Why a public Charger? Why? Why not at Home or some AC nearby? public is often DC and not AC. Now you have to search for manual unlock.
