Possible Causes
Slow response from vehicle onboard charger, Noise on pilot line, Faulty handshake timing circuit on main control board, Incompatible or damaged vehicle inlet electronics
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Handshake issues are low-voltage but always disconnect from mains before physical inspection.
- Reconnect both ends: Unplug from vehicle and mains, then reconnect mains first, then vehicle.
- Wait before retrying: Allow 1–2 minutes between attempts so the vehicle can reset its charging controller.
- Try another vehicle: If E19 only occurs with one car, the issue is likely in that vehicle.
- Check cable and connector: Inspect for damage or contamination that could affect pilot or proximity lines.
- Persistent E19 on multiple vehicles: Indicates a likely timing or communication fault on the J+ Booster main control board; professional diagnosis is required.
