Cable Troubleshooting

Can I use my cable in the rain?

Yes, charging cables can be used in the rain but it is recommended to unplug and store the cable once charging has finished.

Why is one of the pins further back in the plug of my cable?

This is a safety feature on the cables so when it is unplugged the power disconnects first.

My cable has an intermittent fault what should I do?

Please use a process of elimination before making contact, the chances are that it is more likely to be the charger or the car.

Check your timer settings in the vehicle
Check your cable on an alternative charger and vehicle
Unravel the cable, lay it out and untwist any kinks and turns
Make sure the is no obstructions over the cable, or stopping the power passing through
Make sure the cable has some 'slack' and is not stretched to maximum capacity
Disconnect everything, reset the charger, plug into the charger first, then the vehicle, stop all timers, lock the vehicle and reassess the situation

Should the problem persist on an alternative charger and vehicle please email us at sales@evonestop.co.uk with a short description of what is happening and the status indicator colour when you plug your cable in.

Installation

What size cable do I need to run my charger?

We always recommend contacting a qualified electrician for your installation, below is a general guideline for your supplying cable.

Cable run up to 10 metres - 6mm SWA cable
Cable run over 10 metres - 10mm SWA cable

My circuit breaker is floppy, how do I reset it?

To reset the units RCBO - push both levers fully down until you hear a click, this will require a small amount of force as you need to push past a latch. Once you hear the click push both levers to the up position.

See the below article for more information:

RCBO Reset Guide

The LED does not change from flashing blue to solid blue

The first thing to check is that the charging cable is pushed into the unit fully.

The next step would be to check the proximity pilot connection, on the back of the socket there is a small white wire that goes back into the port labelled PX on the mode 3 controller, make sure both connections are secure and tight, it is also a good idea to make sure the same is true for all of the wires between the back of the socket and mode 3 controller.

Checking CP Connection

The LED switches to green but does not charge my vehicle

The first thing to check is that there is a good earth connection on the installed unit, something under 100 ohms is considered adequate, below 80 is ideal.

Please also make sure that there are no charging settings turned on in the car and it is unlocked and turned off.
