Dealer Quoted £3,000 — I Fixed It for £380… But It Wouldn’t Work Until the Dealer Did THIS!

If you own a Stellantis EV — Citroën, Peugeot, or Vauxhall — and your onboard charger has failed, this video is for you. I show exactly how I repaired and replaced a faulty EV onboard charger at home for a fraction of the dealer’s £3,000 quote. This works for many Stellantis models that share the same OBC unit used across the entire range of electric vehicles between 2019 and 2025.

*** DISCLAIMER - Working with high voltage can be dangerous. While disconnecting the 12 V battery will stop the battery outputting power, if a component has failed in the battery, power could still be output. Check the top left rear connector on the OBC to make sure that it doesn't have power and then test on your 12 V battery to confirm that your tester is working. A GS38 tester should be used or a multimeter for the DIYer. Keep safe. DISCLAIMER ***

In this video, I go step-by-step through the diagnosis, teardown, and repair process, showing what fails inside these chargers and how I got mine back on the road for just £380 — including the £130 dealer coding that no one else talks about!

You’ll see exactly what happens when you fit a replacement unit, why it won’t work without dealer coding, and what the coding process actually involves. I also share how to save time and money avoiding long dealership delays.
