Common causes

  • High likelihood: Sensor mounting misaligned after service
  • Medium likelihood: Aged Hall element
  • Low likelihood: Sensor element aged beyond calibration window

Possible symptoms

  • Charge status indicator shows fault
  • Charging may not start or interrupts
  • Slower-than-expected charge rate
