Possible Causes

Weak Wi-Fi signal at charger location, Interference from other wireless devices, Faulty Wi-Fi antenna connection inside charger, Outdated network firmware

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Network issues do not affect electrical safety, but always isolate power before opening the unit.

  • 1. Check signal strength: Use a smartphone near the charger to check Wi-Fi signal. If weak, move the router closer or install a Wi-Fi extender.
  • 2. Change Wi-Fi channel: Log into your router and change to a less congested channel (e.g., 1, 6, or 11 on 2.4 GHz).
  • 3. Re-pair the charger: In the Kia app, remove the charger and add it again following the pairing instructions.
  • 4. Internal antenna check (technician): With power off, a technician can verify that the Wi-Fi antenna cable is securely connected to the communication module.
