    Why Does My Charger Keep Cutting Out During Charging?

    2 min read

    If your charger starts normally but then cuts out after a while, it usually means there’s an intermittent fault. The charger is designed to stop for safety if something isn’t stable.

    Common reasons

    • Supply overload or voltage drop.
    • Loose or damaged cable connection.
    • Vehicle-side fault or software bug.

    Steps to fix the issue

    1. Try removing the schedule,
      • Open the Simpson & Partners app.
      • Turn off/disable the schedule
      • If charging works normally in Imediate Charge mode, the issue may be with a smart charging schedule .
    2. Inspect the cable connection
      • Unplug and firmly re-insert the charging cable until it clicks.
      • Check for dirt, debris, or damage.
      • If you have another cable, test with that.
    3. Monitor your power use at home
      • Running big appliances (ovens, showers, heaters) at the same time can cause voltage drops.
      • Try charging when fewer appliances are in use.
    4. Test with another vehicle (if possible)
      • If the same issue happens with different vehicles, it’s more likely the charger or supply.

    Quick summary

    • Charging that cuts out mid-session is usually caused by heat, supply issues, or a loose connection.
    • First, try manual mode and check the cable.
    • If the problem keeps happening, ask an electrician to check your supply or contact Simpson & Partners support.
