Notes

A wall-mounted Level 2 charger used for faster daily home charging. Repairs are often worthwhile for issues like a failing contactor, communications board, or cable assembly if the enclosure and wiring are in good shape.

Replacement tends to be smarter when multiple electronics fail, water ingress is suspected, or the charger repeatedly derates/overheats despite proper installation and airflow.
