How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: A degraded cable can fail under load. Replace at the first sign of conductor exposure.
- Inspect full length: Run your hand (visually, not physically if cracks are present) along the cable to identify stiff, cracked, or flattened sections.
- Avoid further stress: Stop wrapping the cable tightly or running it under doors or vehicles.
- Replace cable: Order a compatible Amperfied‑approved replacement tethered cable or use a new detachable Type 2 cable.
- Technician installation: For tethered models, a technician must open the charger, disconnect the old cable, install the new one, and perform insulation and function tests.
