Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: If the enclosure is cracked, turn OFF the breaker. Do not use the charger until it has been inspected.

  • Inspect for exposure: Look for exposed internal components, loose pieces, or gaps where water or insects could enter.
  • Do not tape over damage: Temporary fixes like tape do not restore the safety rating of the enclosure.
  • Insurance/installer contact: If the damage was caused by a vehicle, consider filing an insurance claim and contact your installer.
  • Replace housing: A technician should replace the damaged Bosch enclosure or front cover assembly and inspect internal components for impact damage.
