Charging schedule being ignored by the truck

[65SoYoLO]

Again. I have the truck set to start charging at 10 PM. From time to time it just doesn't start charging and I wake up to the battery a few percent lower then when I went to sleep, it just doesn't charge or it forgot to charge. I need %100 battery today so now I have to go to a super charger since it will take 8.25 hours to charge to %100 and I must leave in 1.5 hours. Anyone else have this issue?

I had issues like that with my M3. What worked for me was to set it to finish charging by 5AM instead of setting a rigid start time.

I'll try that next time I need to go to 100 percent. I also test the charge time to see how long it takes to charge to 100% then set the start charging time to finish charging just before I have to leave so the truck is not sitting with 100% soc for to long. Then, I stop charging. I don't think that could be the problem, I test it before the scheduled start time.

Mine did that shortly before the dreaded PCS error.

I have also found scheduling to be unreliable. Set it the other day to be ready to go at a certain time, and it just.. never started charging.

post screenshots of your charging schedule details.

Note that charging schedules are location-based. If your GPS drifts a bit, it could thwart the schedule. I think others have resolved this by deleting the schedule, and recreating for the "current location."

Either that, or make sure you park directly under a satellite

Do you have the schedule set to repeat? My wife had this problem that after an OTA update her car started to ignore the schedule but on my truck (and not on her Model Y, until I changed the setting) I had the schedule set to repeat and I never had that problem with OTA updates.

This is not just a Cybertruck issue. Last week, the charge scheduling stopped working on my AI4 Model 3. It had worked fine up until we got 2026.14.3 and it appears to be working again with 2026.14.6.11.

Check your amperage of charging, if sub 48 may be PCS........
Then set the "finish by" time instead of start time, seems to be more consistent that way.

Hmmm. I'm not sure. I deleted the schedule. I'll try toggling that next time. THANKS

Hope not, I can't afford that

I find that you have to set a start AND end time (end charging by) with anticipating roughly how long ifs going to take to charge. For example, if i leave for work at 8am, but its gonna take 2 hours to get to my charge limit from where i am, i set the schedule to start charging by 6am and finish by 8am.

Kinda related, but the cabin overtemp setting sometimes doesn't work either and I have to turn the setting off and back on to get it to stay. Not sure if it's after OTA updates though.

I notice that also, I have it set for 90 and when I check my phone it say 111, 114...
