What adapter?

Is that a DCFC or a L2 Tesla destination charger?

If you have the Ford provided adapter it won't work at L2 chargers, it is only for Superchargers.

Would be useful to know additional details:

1. Location of the charger?
2. Type of Tesla charger (Desination or Supercharger)?
3. If Supercharger, then V1/V2 or V3/V4?
4. What kind of adapter are you using? NACS to J1772? or NACS to CCS1?

What is shown are the characteristics of that charging location. I don’t see any errors. It shows J1772 so no adapter is required.

Looks like a 22 kW destination charger. The app is telling you can't use P&C or your Ford app to pay. So you likely need sign up for a Tesla Account to charge at it.

You can filter out chargers that are not part of the BlueOval charge network.
You can filter out chargers that are slow.

The problem with random destination L2 chargers is they may or may not be open to random cars. They can be on any number of networks. You might need an App or something to pay for them. It's a mess.

That's not a Tesla destination charger, but with Tesla L2 you would need an adapter AND that charger would have to be set to allow non-Tesla vehicles. Or a special adapter that fools the charger into thinking you have a Tesla.

His app shows that it has a J1772 connector. No adapter needed. He states it’s a Tesla charger, but I have my doubts.
