How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: If the enclosure is cracked, water and dust may enter. Turn OFF the breaker until the unit is inspected.
- 1. Check mounting: Ensure the charger is securely fastened to wall studs or appropriate anchors. Tighten loose mounting screws.
- 2. Inspect for internal damage: With power OFF, open the charger and look for broken standoffs, loose boards, or damaged wiring caused by the impact.
- 3. Replace enclosure or housing: If cracks compromise the weather seal or structural integrity, replace the outer housing or entire charger assembly as recommended by Ford.
- 4. Add protection: Consider installing bollards or guards if the charger is in a vehicle path.
