As more and more people make the switch from fossil-fueled cars to EVs, the demand for EV chargers is also on the rise. But as with any technology, they can experience issues. Whether it's a slow charge, an error message, or simply an inability to charge, troubleshooting electric car charging issues can be frustrating. In this blog, we will provide you with some troubleshooting tips to ensure your EV charger remains reliable and efficient.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Power Issue

If your charger doesn't power on, don't panic. Check the basics—has the circuit breaker tripped? Is the unit securely plugged in or appropriately hardwired? Ensure that there are no visible signs of damage, such as frayed wires or a loose connector. While doing so, be cautious and never touch any live wire or cable. 

  • Slow Charging

This can be caused by various factors, including low voltage or a faulty charger. If your charging speed seems unusual, you should inspect the connector for obstructions or debris and clean it if necessary. Also, check the car's battery level; if it’s low, try driving to a location with a charging station before attempting to charge it again.

  • Error Messages

Error messages like car battery not charging can appear when there is a problem with the charging process. To save yourself from such electric car charging issues, ensure your charging station runs on the latest software version. If you frequently encounter this kind of issue, contact the charger's manufacturer. They can provide valuable information about the issue.

  • Overheating

Overheating can damage the charger and pose a safety risk. If the electric car or the charging station is overheating, the charging process may stop as a safety precaution. Wait for the car or the charging station to cool down before charging again.
