Possible Causes

Supply voltage above JuiceBox rating, Loose or incorrect wiring at input terminal block, Faulty voltage sensing circuit on main control board, Utility or generator overvoltage condition

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Only qualified persons should measure live voltages. Turn off power before opening the unit.

  • Confirm supply voltage: Using a multimeter, have a qualified person measure line-to-line (or line-to-neutral) voltage at the breaker panel and at the JuiceBox input terminals. Ensure it matches the unit rating (typically ~240 V AC for North America).
  • Inspect input wiring: With power OFF, remove the front cover and verify that line, line/neutral, and ground are correctly landed on the input terminal block. Tighten all screws to spec. Incorrectly landed neutrals or swapped legs can cause sensing errors.
  • Check for shared or multi-wire branch circuits: Ensure the JuiceBox is on a dedicated circuit with a properly tied 2-pole breaker. Improperly shared neutrals can cause overvoltage readings.
  • Power-cycle and retest: After correcting any wiring issues, turn the breaker OFF for 2 minutes, then ON, and attempt charging again.
  • Persistent E04 with correct voltage: If measured voltage is normal but E04 remains, the voltage sensing circuit on the main control board may be faulty. Board replacement should be performed by a qualified technician.
