Possible Causes
Direct sun exposure on dark enclosure, Poor ventilation around unit, Loose high‑current connections causing localized heating, High ambient temperature in enclosed space
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Allow the unit to cool and turn OFF power before opening.
- Check mounting location: If installed in direct sunlight, consider adding shading or relocating to a cooler, shaded wall.
- Ensure airflow: Remove any items stored against or over the Grizzl‑E that block airflow.
- Tighten lugs: With cover removed and power OFF, tighten all high‑current lugs on the terminal block and contactor to specified torque.
- Monitor operation: After reassembly, run a charge session and periodically feel the enclosure. Warm is normal; too hot to touch indicates a problem that may require component replacement.
