Thanks. pbui19 . We have to figure out how to get ManlyMiev's i-MiEV out of the closet so he can charge with door open. I think his I-MiEV may just have a case of shyness.... :)
Opening the door should have NO effect on a charging session. This is a deeper problem than just saying it's a charger issue. The dealer is being, well, a dealer....
I'm interested in seeing this issue resolved, so I'll see what I can do.
