Why does my Wallbox charger show a red light?

A red light usually means an earth fault, a communication error with the car, overheating or a tripped RCD. We diagnose the exact cause and repair on site where possible.

How much does EV charger repair cost in Alicante?

The diagnostic visit starts from €80 and is deducted if the repair goes ahead. The final cost depends on whether the fault is in the wiring, the Wallbox or the RCD.

EV Charger Repair in Santa Pola

In Santa Pola, a coastal town with a strong fishing and second-home character, many EV chargers are in villas of the Gran Alacant urbanisations and in apartment garages by the port. The intermittent use typical of second homes means faults often appear right on return after months without charging, when a contact has oxidised or the unit has locked up after an earlier power cut.

We repair chargers in Santa Pola and Gran Alacant taking into account the saline environment and seasonal use. We check the unit, the protection and the wiring, and advise on how to leave the charger correctly when the home will be closed for a season, to avoid the typical restart-after-months fault.

Coming back after months closed: what to check before calling

There are three safe checks you can do yourself on arrival, and they resolve a fair number of call-outs. See whether the charger's breaker in the panel is in the on position; note the colour and flashing pattern of the status light; and try a different cable if you have one. Do not open the unit's housing or handle the wiring.

If the charger still does not work after that, those details save time on the visit. In Gran Alacant and the Santa Pola estates, the most common findings after a closed season are an oxidised contact or a unit locked out by an earlier supply cut, both of which are fixed on site.
