- GFI fault displayed
- Unable to restart charging
- EVSE may also show fault
- Intermittent charge interruptions
Common causes
- Moisture in charge port or HV connector
- HV cable insulation degradation
- Onboard charger internal ground fault
- EVSE ground fault sensitivity
- Home wiring ground/neutral issue
Diagnostic steps
- Inspect charge port for moisture or debris
- Test HV system isolation resistance
- Try charging at different EVSE
- Check home electrical grounding

Repair notes
Dry and clean charge port. Test HV isolation. If vehicle-side fault confirmed, inspect HV cable insulation and onboard charger. Have electrician verify home wiring if fault only occurs at home.
