EV Charger Repair
A home charger that won't deliver a charge is more than an inconvenience — it can leave you stranded on a Monday morning. We connect you with licensed, insured electricians who diagnose the fault and fix it properly, whether it's the breaker, the wiring, or the unit itself.
The problems we see most
Most charger faults fall into a short list. Knowing which one you're dealing with helps the electrician arrive with the right parts:
- •Charger shows power but won't start a session
- •Breaker or GFCI trips the moment charging begins
- •Visible damage to the cable, plug or connector
- •Error code or blinking fault light on the unit
- •Charging far slower than it used to
- •Unit dead after a storm or power surge
What a repair visit looks like
The electrician starts at the panel and works toward the charger: checking the breaker, testing voltage at the outlet or terminals, inspecting the connections for heat damage, and reading any fault codes off the unit. You get a diagnosis and a price before the repair happens — no surprises once the cover comes off. Many faults are sorted in a single visit.
A safety note worth repeating
If your charger smells hot, the plug or outlet is discolored, or the breaker won't stop tripping, stop using it and get it looked at. Those are the early signs of a connection problem that's worth taking seriously.
Repair questions, answered
Why has my EV charger stopped working?▾
Nine times out of ten it's one of a handful of things: a tripped breaker or GFCI, a loose or corroded connection at the terminals, a damaged cable or connector, or the unit's own electronics failing. A licensed electrician can usually tell which within the first twenty minutes on site.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace the charger?▾
Depends on what failed. A breaker, a connection, or wiring is almost always worth repairing. If the charging unit's internal board is dead and it's out of warranty — especially on an older 32A model — replacing it often costs about the same and gets you a faster, newer charger. Your electrician will give you both numbers before any work starts.
My charger keeps tripping the breaker — is that dangerous?▾
Treat it as a stop sign. A breaker that trips repeatedly is doing its job: it's catching a fault, an overloaded circuit, or a ground problem. Don't keep resetting it. Have it looked at, because the underlying issue can be a safety risk.
Do you fix public or commercial charging stations too?▾
The network includes electricians who service commercial and workplace stations, not just home units. Mention the make and model when you call so we route you to someone who knows that hardware.
