Is there a correlation between the start of your problem and rain? If so, then how long between your problem arising and charging at 240 Volts? The length of time may have allowed the charge port to have dried out sufficiently to allow charging. Has the problem recurred on the 120 Volt EVSE subsequent to charging at 240 Volts. Do you have access to another EVSE? Please describe the light sequence of the charge indicator light on top of the dash when plugging in the 120 EVSE, as well as the lights on the EVSE itself.

I don't think that a problem with your car could damage an EVSE. I would try your neighbor. The "handshake" between the car and the old EVSE shows an incomplete electrical connection (yellow light goes out and no green light). I tend to believe that there may be something wrong with your EVSE. Perhaps trying your EVSE with your neighbor's car might be revealing, too. I can't think of a way it could damage a car.

or have them charge their volt on your EVSE

I think that I just said that..."Perhaps trying your EVSE with your neighbor's car might be revealing, too. " 8^))

Thanks all.
Update: I did speak with my neighbor - and was set to try my Volt with their Charger on Monday (they were out of town), but because of the original rain inquiry, I tried one additional step: We had sunny day, so laid my plug end of charger in the sun - connectors facing the sun. Gave a quick check after 3 hours and got the green light - charging. real test was last night (I reset charging from immediately to my TOU settings (low peak starts at 9p)) - and this morning found that a got a full charge! If we have more sun today, I'll probably repeat for good measure, but looks like problem may be solved. appreciate all the input!

"Solved"? More like "Revealed". How/why did the the moisture get in there?! How will that condition be prevented?
