Hyundai Authorization State Mismatch

Vehicle reports that the charging station is locked or not authorized, even though no error is shown on the charger.

Possible Causes

Charger left in locked mode in app, RFID access enabled but no card presented, Communication delay between app and charger, Firmware bug in access control logic

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No high‑voltage work is needed.

Check lock status: In the Hyundai app, verify that the charger is set to unlocked or auto mode.
Use RFID (if enabled): Present an authorized card to start the session.
Restart app and charger: Close and reopen the app, then power cycle the charger via the breaker to clear stale states.
Update firmware: Install any available firmware updates that address access control issues.
