If you are facing the no power issue in Tesla charging, then it’s time to fix it. Below are some simple steps to resolve the issue and get you back on the road:

Step #1: Run The Circuit Breaker To On Position

Go near your circuit breaker and check its size. If you put the wrong size breaker on the wall or mobile charger, it might not offer power to the unit. For further details, learn about Tesla wall connector breaker size or Mobile Connector need and change it.

After that, check if it is energized or not. You’ll need to move the wall connector’s breaker and make it in the ‘On’ position. Or else, the unit won’t get power.

Step #2: Take Care Of The Wiring Connection

A lot of times the wiring issues can cause the charger to not get power. If that happens, here’s what you need to do:

• Take a bit driver and insert a 4 mm hex bit to detach the screws from the four locations.
• Detach the main unit to find the wire box. Be sure to use pressure when pulling it.
• Inspect the wiring harness (black, green, and red cables) carefully. If you find a peel-off or broken piece of wire, then be sure to mark it.
• Insert the torque driver with a 4 mm hex bit to simply take out the terminal screw that holds the problematic wire. You need to torque the screws in a 5.6 Nm point.
• Pull out the wire and cut extra above using a wire cutter.
• Use a wire stripper to detach the insulation.
• After that, put the conductor inside the terminal block and place the screw. Twist it using the same tool so that it stays secure.
• Attach the wall connector’s main unit and press it. Reinstall the 4 screws using the bit driver with a 4 mm hex driver.
• Done!

Note: Be sure to remove the extension cord as sometimes this can drop the voltage and cause no power issue.

Step #3: Repair Or Replace The Outlet

If everything seems good, then it indicates the issue with the outlet. As all Tesla chargers get power from the outlet, you’ll need to check whether it’s working or not.

Use the multimeter to check the voltage. If it seems wrong, then the wires are either broken or is not able to give power to the unit. In that case, open the outlet box and inspect the wires to patch them up.

Still, not charging? Then, look for burnt marks or scent that indicates an issue that requires an instant fix.
