Possible Causes
Loose mounting of Walli contactor, Vibrating internal transformer or choke, Resonance of Walli enclosure against wall, Overvoltage causing contactor coil noise
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Noise alone is not always dangerous, but it can indicate loose components.
Steps:
- Localize the sound: Carefully listen to identify whether the noise comes from the contactor area, transformer, or enclosure.
- Check mounting: Ensure the Walli charger is firmly mounted to a solid surface and that all housing screws are tight.
- Internal check: With power off, open the unit and verify that the contactor and any transformers/chokes are securely fastened to their brackets.
- Measure supply voltage: Have an electrician confirm that the supply voltage is within the Walli specified range.
- Replace noisy component: If the contactor or transformer continues to buzz excessively, replace the affected component with a Walli‑approved part.
