Possible Causes

Failed RFID reader module, Loose RFID antenna connection, Corrupted user authorization data, Faulty RFID interface on control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before accessing internal electronics.

  • Test with multiple cards: Try more than one authorized RFID card or tag to rule out a single bad card.
  • Inspect RFID reader: If the reader is external, check its cable and connector to the Polestar charger. Ensure it is not physically damaged or water‑logged.
  • Reseat antenna/reader cable: With the cover removed and power off, locate the RFID reader connector on the main control board and reseat it.
  • Re‑enroll users: If possible via the app or local menu, clear and re‑add authorized users/cards.
  • Module replacement: If E14 persists, replace the Polestar RFID reader module. If that does not resolve the issue, the RFID interface on the main control board may be defective.
