Possible Causes

Vehicle onboard charger leaking DC current, Moisture or contamination causing DC leakage paths, Faulty RDC‑DD sensor, Incorrect calibration of DC detection circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: DC leakage is a safety issue. Do not repeatedly reset without investigation.

  • Step 1 – Try another vehicle: Connect a different EV to see if E019 is vehicle‑specific.
  • Step 2 – Inspect for moisture: With power OFF, check the socket, cable entry, and internal wiring for moisture or conductive contamination. Dry and clean as needed.
  • Step 3 – Power cycle: After drying, leave the charger off for at least 30 minutes, then power up and test again.
  • Step 4 – RDC‑DD module check: A technician should verify the operation of the RDC‑DD sensor using appropriate test equipment.
  • When to call a technician: Persistent E019 across multiple vehicles requires professional testing and likely replacement of the RDC‑DD module or main PCB.
