Right charging port impaired

[Voltaire]

had this recently on my J1.2. Actually the left port was stuck part way open but the error message said right port. Apparently that is common (probably a UK right-hand drive weirdness).

I don't think it's right-hand drive weirdness - it's because the doors are set up so that only one can be open at a time. A bad sensor on either side can cause the other door not to be able to open, and the car doesn't do a good job of reporting what the sensors are actually telling it. I would occasionally see "left charging port impaired" messages, but the right charging port was the defective one.

Well the dealer ended up replacing both left & right charging flaps and this “charging port impaired” issue seems to have finally gone away. Thought I would share this in case anyone had the same issue
