EV Charger Repair in Accrington

EV charger repair in Accrington for units that will not start, keep cutting out or show a fault light. We test the supply, the earthing and the charger itself before deciding whether it needs a part or a full replacement.

Faults We See Most Often

Tripping on start up, a red fault light, a dead unit or a charge that stops halfway are the usual calls. Water in the enclosure, a failed contactor and a damaged tethered cable account for a lot of them. Some turn out to be a supply problem.

Testing Before Replacing Parts

Swapping parts blind gets expensive quickly. We check the incoming supply, the protective device, the earthing arrangement and the unit's own diagnostics first. That normally points straight at the cause, so you only pay for the part that has actually failed.

Repair or Replace

If the unit is fairly recent and parts are available, repair is usually the cheaper route. If it is an early model, out of support, or the main board has failed, a new unit on the existing cable often costs less than the repair. We give you both figures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my EV charger trip the RCD when I plug in?

Usually moisture in the socket or plug, a fault in the car's onboard charger, or a failing component in the unit. Testing tells them apart quickly. Try a different cable first if you have one, since a damaged lead is a common and cheap cause.

Can you repair any make of EV charger in Accrington?

We can test and diagnose any make. Whether it can be repaired depends on whether the manufacturer still supplies parts. Some brands sell replacement boards and contactors, others treat the unit as sealed. We will tell you which yours is before doing any work.

My charger is slower than it used to be. Why?

Cars slow charging down as the battery fills or when it is cold, so that may be normal. If it is slow from the start, the unit may have dropped to a lower current setting, or a connection may be overheating and derating. Worth testing either way.
