Why is the charger showing “Faulted”?

The charger status may change to "Faulted" often due to power outages caused by weather conditions. The charger could have a loss of power or power fluctuations. When power has been restored, the charger may not have booted up correctly.

How to resolve charger displaying the charger

To reset the charger, try these steps:

  1. Click the Reset charger to reset the hardware.

    1. This will reset the hardware and restart the charging station. This will take a moment for the station to restart and return to a starting/available state.

      To perform a Reset charger:

      1. Click on the chargers tab

      2. Locate the charger.

      3. Click on the three dots "..." section on the far right.

If the resets did not clear the fault, perform a power cycle.

3. Turn off the power at the circuit breaker.

a. If the charger is still faulted, turn off the power at the circuit breaker for about 30 seconds, then turn it back on. This process of rebooting the charger will take about 1-3 minutes. A power cycle completely shut down the station from all power. When powering the station back up, all software and hardware will reboot to an available status.

Contact support:

If this does not resolve the issue, please open a ticket with the charger ID and the date and time of the power cycle. This information will help narrow down the logs to locate the fault reported.
