Overnight, stopped charging and will no long charge

[Mal]

Dunno if it's related, but I've noticed that my wall connector's charging handle feels kind of loose when I insert it into the truck. This is my first Tesla, so I don't know how it's supposed to feel, but expected a more snug fit. (And I have seen a communication error once)

Can others chime in? Do you get what you consider a snug fit with your wall connectors when you plug in?

Take this as one persons experience, but wall connector feels looser than mobile connector which feels looser than supercharger.

Well, it's not charging again. Posting this while passing the time, waiting for two minutes so the truck can restart... Had it been two minutes yet...?
Didn't work. Had it plugged in so I unplugged the truck and trying again. The buttons in the Squirkle are still lite, should that be since I shut the truck off?

EDIT-Didn't work. I plugged on my portable charger and it is working, charging at 13 mph. So, Is it the charger malfunction of a connection issue? How do I check?

DOUBLE EDIT-unplugged the portable charger and plugged in the wall charger and it is working again. No idea what the issue is.

Check the electrical lugs that are holding the wiring on your level 2 charger. Make sure they haven't worked loose

Flip the breaker for that circuit first.

I guess that is the best place to start. Thanks for the idea.

I went on a trip Wednesday night to Sunday and supercharged the whole time not a single problem. I get home plug the hole charger in again It charged for about 2 hours and then stopped I had a message that it stop charging unexpectedly I went into my app and swipe to the left to the my home section and hit start charging there and it charged just fine so I'm not sure what the problem is. I thought it was conflicting with the scheduling but now I deleted the scheduling and it still does it

Your truck does it with the portable charger? Mine is doing it with the Universal charger...I had thought it was the charger but now I no longer believe that. Is it cold where you are?

Why are you using the Tesla One app after initial commissioning?

(And is that 6 gauge NM-B (Romex) or THHN in conduit?)
