Possible Causes
Deformed connector housing, Bent or misaligned pins, Damaged latch mechanism, Dirt or debris in connector
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Do not force the connector; this can damage both the charger and vehicle inlet.
- 1. Visual inspection: Examine the connector for cracks, melted areas, or obvious deformation. Check that the latch moves freely.
- 2. Clean connector: Use compressed air and a soft brush to remove dust and debris. Do not insert metal objects into the pin area.
- 3. Check pin alignment: Look for bent or recessed pins. If pins are misaligned, the connector should be replaced; do not attempt to bend pins back.
- 4. Replace connector assembly: If mechanical damage is present, replace the entire J1772 connector or output cable assembly per Besenergy specifications.
When to call a professional: For connector replacement, contact a qualified technician.
