Communication error

The charger is offline in its app, or the charger and vehicle fail to negotiate a session.

Common causes

  • Wi-Fi signal weak or credentials changed
  • Local network or cloud outage
  • Control pilot communication problem between charger and vehicle
  • Firmware update interrupted

Safe checks

  1. 1Check the charger is within Wi-Fi range and the network is up.
  2. 2Restart your router before restarting the charger.
  3. 3Re-seat the charging cable at both ends.
  4. 4Only restart the charger with the manufacturer-documented procedure.

When to call a technician

Call a qualified technician if the device repeats the fault after a manufacturer-approved restart, shows a burning smell, has damaged or discoloured wiring, or if the symptom involves the battery, inverter power stage or any sealed high-voltage component.
