Alright yes, basically the Tesla charger board pulls down CP and the circuit I added tries to not alter the CP signal at all but just "reads" it
Ok, but do you use this circuit to also signal to the charger to start or is it just for auxilliaries?
Asking because i plan on using PP signal to start aux stuff in my pug and i want to know if i need anything more...

Yes the circuit also powers the charger itself. I guess it would work likewise with PP

Ah, but no "enable" signal and the likes, you just power up the charger and it is satisfied by Cp signal then?
tnx
