Possible Causes
Faulty external load control input wiring, Incorrect configuration of dynamic load management in Kia charger, Failed external current sensor (for whole-house monitoring), Communication loss with external energy meter
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: External control wiring may carry mains voltage. Only qualified personnel should modify these connections.
- 1. Check app or web settings: If your charger is configured for dynamic load management, verify the settings and disable the feature temporarily to see if charging resumes.
- 2. Inspect external sensors: If a whole-house current sensor or energy meter is installed, ensure it has power and is functioning. Replace batteries if applicable.
- 3. Verify wiring (technician): With power off, a technician should inspect the external control terminals and wiring for loose connections or shorts.
- 4. Bypass external control (test only): Under technician supervision, temporarily disconnect or bypass the external control input to confirm whether it is the source of E19.
- 5. Replace faulty sensor or reconfigure: If the external device is defective, replace it or reconfigure the charger to operate without external load management.
