Possible Causes

Incorrect time or timezone set in BYD charger, Overlapping or conflicting schedules, Vehicle-side schedule overriding charger, RTC drift on main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No high-voltage work is required for schedule adjustments.

  • Verify time settings: Check and correct the date, time, and timezone in the BYD app or charger interface.
  • Review schedules: Delete all existing schedules and create a single simple schedule as a test.
  • Check vehicle settings: Disable any charging schedules set in the vehicle to avoid conflicts.
  • Test immediate charge: Confirm that manual charging works; if not, the issue is not schedule-related.
  • Firmware update: Install any BYD firmware updates that address scheduling reliability.
