Critical
The temperature sensor in the charging connector is reading too high. This can be caused by a loose connection, worn contacts, or high ambient temperature. The charger will reduce power or stop.
What to do
- Do not touch the connector if it feels very hot
- Let it cool down before unplugging
- Try a different connector. Worn contacts cause resistance heating
- Report to the charging network
Who's responsible?
