Failed LED driver on HMI board, Burned-out LEDs, Loose ribbon cable between HMI and control board, Minor power rail fault limited to HMI

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety warning: This is primarily a usability issue; electrical safety is usually unaffected.

  • 1. Verify charging: Confirm via the vehicle and app that charging works correctly despite dim LEDs.
  • 2. Adjust ambient light: Check if LEDs are visible in low light; some designs dim in bright conditions.
  • 3. Inspect HMI connections: With power OFF, open the charger and reseat the ribbon cable or harness to the LED/HMI board.
  • 4. Look for damage: Check the HMI board for signs of overheating or corrosion.
  • 5. Replace HMI if needed: If LEDs remain non-functional, replace the front panel HMI/LED board.
