I bought a car charger & used it, when I got home it said it was over charged & still said charge was 0 %. Do I have to buy or install something to prevent battery damage?
Is your home charger working properly and charges normally. If yes I would try another car charger. Both pieces if it’s a usb type. Sometimes the car itself does not allow the charger to function properly. See if you can charge from a different car. If no then you might have a problem with either the battery, port connector, or the board. Are you using the same cable that you are using in the car? If so that might be defective. Let me know so I can give you more suggestions
Hi D Wax, I am inclined to think that the charger was not working. try reconnecting the leads. You should see the charging indicator working if all good. If not then the connections may need attention, or the fuse is blown. More information will help us to help you! Most chargers turn off when charge completed. Its normal for the phone to feel warm during or when finished charging. I have come across some usb leads that dont work, you may need to try another lead… Cheers, ausmec101
