Not all the EV Line components are being detected

A charging station is made of several modules that talk to each other. If one is not found, the charger may not charge, read RFID cards or measure. Start here to find which module is missing and where to go next.

Signs that a module is not found: the LED stays red while the charger is online, the car does not start charging, RFID cards are not read, or measurements show 0 in the app.

Safety: Checks inside the charging station are for a qualified installer only. Switch off the power before you open the charger.

First: restart the charging station

Switch the charging station off with its circuit breaker, wait a few seconds and switch it on again. The charger then searches for its modules again. Check the module list after a few minutes. Still a module missing? Continue below.

How to see which modules are found

In the Smappee app

Go to Settings > Charging stations and tap the charging station. Further down the page you see its modules.

In the Smappee Dashboard (installers)

The firmware card of the charging station shows each module as found or not found.

Note: After a module was replaced, the old module can stay in the list as "not found". That is normal, as long as the new module is found. Replaced a module but not linked it yet? See How to replace a Charging Station module via the Smappee App

Which module is missing?

What you see Article
Only the Connect is found, or several modules are missing Usually a cable in the chain between the modules. Check that every RJ10 cable is in a B port (not an A port), fully clicked in and undamaged, and reconnect them. The modules and wiring page of your charger (table above) shows how the modules are connected.
AC charge controller + RFID not found AC charge controller + RFID not found
AC charge controller not found (EV Wall Home V2, EV Base V2, EV Wall Business V1 / V2) AC charge controller not found (EV Wall Home/Business V2, EV Base V2)
RFID reader not found (EV Wall Home V2, EV Base V2, EV Wall Business V1 / V2) RFID reader not found (EV Wall Home/Business V2, EV Base V2)
MID meter not found Troubleshooting MID meter not found
LED controller not found (EV Base) The front LED stays dark, but charging keeps working normally. Restart the charging station and check the cables to the LED controller.
CT Hub or Solidcore not found (EV Wall Home V3 / V2, EV One Home V3) Troubleshooting - EV Wall Home/One (V3) - CT Hub/Solidcore are not found
A Power Box, CT Hub or Solidcore shows up on the EV Wall, EV One or EV Base Wiring mistake: the energy monitoring modules are connected to the charger. They need their own installation with their own Connect.

EV Wall V4, EV One V4 and EV Dual

Restart the charging station (power off and on). Still a module missing? Contact Smappee support. On an EV Dual with one black display, first check the RCD of that connector: each connector has its own RCD.

Still a module missing?

Contact Smappee support via smappee.com/support with the serial number (and connector number on an EV Base or EV Dual) and the checks you already did.
