How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Network configuration is low risk, but avoid opening the unit while energized.

  • Distance and obstacles: Move closer to the charger with your phone and ensure there are minimal walls or metal objects between.
  • Reset network settings: Follow the Webasto manual to reset network configuration (often via a button sequence or power cycle procedure).
  • Check 2.4 GHz vs 5 GHz: Some chargers only support 2.4 GHz; ensure your phone is scanning that band.
  • Service replacement: If the Wi‑Fi module has failed, a technician may need to replace the communication board or main PCB.
