Possible Causes
Aging capacitors or inductors on main control board, Mechanical resonance in transformer or choke, Operation at edge of design voltage/current range, Loose mounting of power components
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: While noise alone is not always dangerous, it can indicate stress on components.
- Note when it occurs: Observe if the noise appears only at certain current levels or temperatures.
- Reduce current: If possible, lower the charging current and see if the noise diminishes.
- Check mounting: Ensure the charger is firmly mounted; vibration can amplify coil whine.
- If noise is new and increasing: Have the unit inspected; components on the main control board may be degrading.
