EV Charger Maintenance & Repair

Keep Your Home Charging Station Running Reliably

A Level 2 home charging station is a 240-volt hardwired appliance on a dedicated circuit — and like any electrical equipment, it needs periodic inspection and occasional repair. Whether your unit has stopped working, charges slower than it used to, or you just want a professional to confirm everything is operating safely, our electricians can diagnose the issue and fix it right.

We work on all major brands including ChargePoint, JuiceBox, Clipper Creek, Wallbox, Tesla Wall Connector, Grizzl-E, Emporia, and more.

Common Problems We Repair

Charger Won't Power On

If your unit shows no lights, no display, or no response, the issue is usually electrical — a tripped GFCI or breaker, a failed circuit, or a problem at the panel. We trace the fault and restore power safely.

Charging Session Starts Then Stops

Intermittent charging — where the session begins and then cuts out — is often caused by a loose connection at the outlet, breaker, or charger terminals. Loose connections at 240 volts generate heat and are a fire risk. Don’t ignore this one.

Slower Charging Than Expected

If your car is charging significantly slower than your unit’s rated output, the issue is usually a wiring problem — voltage drop from an undersized circuit, a poor connection, or a breaker not delivering full amperage. We test the circuit end-to-end to find where the loss is occurring.

GFCI Fault or Error Codes

Most smart chargers display error codes when they detect a fault. Ground faults, communication errors, and over-temperature warnings each point to different underlying problems. We interpret the error, trace the cause, and repair it — whether it’s in the charger, the wiring, or the panel.

60-amp or 100-amp panels with no open slots
Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or pushmatic panels
Panels with double-tapped breakers or modified wiring
Panels more than 30–40 years old with accumulated loads

Outlet or Receptacle Problems

If you’re using a plug-in charger on a NEMA 14-50 or 6-50 outlet, outlet failure is common — especially if the receptacle wasn’t rated for continuous high-amperage draw. We replace the outlet with an industrial-grade receptacle and verify the circuit can handle the sustained load your charger requires.

Physical Damage or Water Intrusion

A damaged cable, cracked housing, or water-intruded unit needs professional evaluation before being used again. We assess whether the equipment is serviceable or needs replacement and advise on next steps.

Incorrect Installation by Someone Else

We regularly see home charging equipment installed without a permit, on undersized wire, without proper breaker sizing, or without the required disconnect. If your charger was installed by a handyman or someone who cut corners, we document what’s wrong and bring it up to code.

Safety Inspections

Not experiencing a specific problem but want peace of mind? Our safety inspection covers:

Circuit amperage and wire gauge verification
Breaker sizing and condition
Connection torque at all termination points
GFCI and ground fault protection
Outlet or hardwire connection condition
Clearances and mounting integrity
Panel health at the circuit’s home breaker

We provide a written summary of findings. If everything looks good, you’ll know it. If something needs attention, we’ll tell you exactly what and why.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if the problem is my charger or the wiring?

In most cases, you can’t tell without testing the circuit. The charger, the wiring, the outlet or hardwire connection, and the breaker are all part of the same system. We test each component individually so we can tell you exactly where the fault is before recommending any parts or repairs.

Can you repair any brand?

We diagnose and repair the electrical system — the circuit, wiring, panel, and outlet or hardwire connection — for any brand. For the charger unit itself, some repairs require manufacturer parts or warranty service. If that’s the case, we’ll tell you what we found and what your options are.

Does repair work require a permit?

Minor repairs — replacing a faulty outlet, tightening connections — typically don’t require a permit. Work that modifies the circuit, replaces wiring, or makes changes at the panel usually does. We’ll tell you upfront before we start.

What does repair cost?

Diagnostic visit / inspection: $75–$150
Outlet replacement (NEMA 14-50 or 6-50): $150–$350
Breaker replacement or circuit repair: $200–$500
Full circuit replacement (new wire run): $400–$1,200
Charger re-installation / code correction: $300–$800

We provide a written quote for any repair before work begins. Diagnostic fees are typically credited toward the repair cost.
