Possible Causes

Timing mismatch between charger lock and vehicle lock, Faulty lock feedback signal from vehicle, Incorrect regional configuration, Control board firmware bug

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not force the connector. Turn off power if the connector cannot be removed normally.

  • Test with another vehicle: If possible, connect a different EV to see if the issue is specific to one car.
  • Check configuration: Ensure the Polestar charger is configured for the correct connector standard and region in the installer menu or app.
  • Update firmware: Use the Polestar app or service portal to check for and apply any firmware updates that address locking coordination.
  • Service support: If E27 persists across vehicles, contact Polestar support; a firmware patch or control board replacement may be required.
