Possible Causes

Impact from vehicle or object, Improper mounting hardware, Wall substrate deterioration, UV or weather-related plastic fatigue

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the breaker before attempting to adjust or remount the Wallbox. Do not pull on the housing.

  • Inspect mounting points: Check that all screws and anchors are present and tight. Look for cracks around mounting holes.
  • Stabilize temporarily: If the unit is loose but not falling, you may gently support it with a temporary brace until a professional can remount it.
  • Do not operate if severely damaged: If the housing is significantly cracked or open, do not use the charger; water and dust can enter.

A BMW-certified installer should remount the Wallbox using appropriate anchors and replace the housing or complete unit if structural integrity is compromised.
