Charging stopped lamp

[p207769]

Hi

Just wondering if anyone else had this issue, put it on charge this morning using 13 amp socket. It was about 3/4 full when a 'charging stopped' lamp came on and the usual green lights on the charging cable went out. The fault light didn't come on. No lights at all! It is very hot today, and thinking it's the heat?

Many thanks

All the green lights? I still have at least one at the end of charging, so is it a blow fuse on your house circuit, perhaps?

Edit:

Just been out and checked having full re-charged overnight. Yep, one steady green and one flashing. Only time no lights is when I switch off at the mains. So I think it is there that the problem lies not with the car.

Yes, like greenwarf says, this is a "power off" symptom. Either the fuse / RCD has tripped or some other cause has cut power.

It was the heat! Thermal cut off switch on my extension lead had tripped!

All fine now!

Sounds like OP is using a 10A cord and not one rated for 15A. Problem just waiting around the corner.
