Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Critical safety: Immediately stop using the charger if you detect a burning smell or see smoke.
- 1. Isolate power: Turn OFF the breaker feeding the charger and do not turn it back on until the issue is resolved.
- 2. Inspect externally: Look for melted plastic, discoloration, or deformation on the cable, plug, and charger housing.
- 3. Open and inspect (qualified only): Check internal terminals, contactor, and PCB for burn marks or carbonization.
- 4. Replace damaged parts: Any burned connectors, cables, or boards must be replaced, not repaired.
- 5. Verify torque and sizing: After repair, ensure all terminals are tightened to spec and that cable sizes and protective devices are correctly rated.
