Just plugged mine in. The maintenance charge indicator is solid green but the charge indicator is flashing. Does this indicate that I don’t really need it connected or is something wrong? 3rd winter I have used it.

I think flashing means a bad connection at the battery or the cig lighter adapter.

Thanks EV. I think that was it. BTW, I believe you are the member who steered me to this tender.

I have had problems with the quick release plug in the past. Once I had it sitting for weeks and all of a sudden I heard a buzzing sound and found the plug had a bad connection.

Hello, I am having a devil of a time finding the stock C6 charger/tender. I had one sent to me but it had a euro-plug. I lost contact with another vendor, and I am getting conflicting info on part numbers from others. Can anyone help me find the exact replacement for the one that came with my 2012 GS? It is on the window sticker and I want to keep the car as true as possible to original. Exact replacement would be C6 logo, 110 volt, Black pouch with C6 logo too. Thanks in advance.

Ya thanks, I got that Google thing figured out. But try actually buying one. What I experienced thus far on the internet is sellers using stock photos and "Photos may not represent actual product" ? Chase those part numbers around a little and see what I am talking about. It is not so cut and dry. I have actually purchased "correct" ones only to have them not match. I have also had sellers open boxes prior to shipping to verify and those were wrong. I need a seller that understands the difference between C6 and C7 and 110 or 220. You are right to think it should be simple, but it is not.
