So yesterday I got my new Ford Charge station 80 amp installed. I went to set up on the app and it’s not showing it as connected to the application. I went through the app and had it connected to my home wifi and it showed the connection as successful but then it has you launch the ford pass app which when hit that button it just crashes. So I rebooted both apps and not it’s not showing up at all. I hit the reset button on the charger and rebooted it but still not showing up. Not sure how to get this connected to my ford pass app or just restart the process. Any ideas? Thanks

Yes setting up the FCSP is bug-filled.
I had the same problem - get the FCSP on the wifi, FordPass also on wifi, FordPass can see the FCSP id etc, but in the last step to add the FCSP to FordPass, error message "ChargePoint Not Found"

However, the last time I tried adding it to FordPass I got a different error "Incorrect Station ID or Access code" even though the ID and PW are correct...

It charges my 2023 Lightning Pro however so I am not going to waste any more time on trying to get it to integrate with FordPass.

Many people have had issues with the FCSP, btw, so we are not alone.

To err is human, to really screw up, you need a computer, as they say.

Repeat your configuration of the FCSP to your wifi network.

Once that's done disconnect your phone from from the wifi network, turn bluetooth back on (you should have turned it off during setup).

Wait a few hours for the FCSP to connect to the Ford data center.

Start your regular Fordpass app, go to Energy, scroll to the bottom, select charge station, add charge station, follow prompts.
