A defective splicing of the loop wire can also lead
to disruptions several weeks after the splice was
done. A faulty splice can, for example, be the
result of the original coupler not being pressed
together hard enough with a pair of pliers, or that
a coupler of lower quality than the original
coupler has been used. Please first check all
known splices before further troubleshooting is
done.
A wire break can be located by gradually halving
the distance of the loop where the break may
have occurred until there is only a very short
section of the wire left.
The following method does not work if
ECO
mode is activated. Make sure first that ECO
mode is turned off. Refer to ECO mode on page
25.
1. Check that the indicator lamp in the charging
station flashes blue, which indicates a break
in the boundary loop. Refer to
in the charging station on page 41.
2. Check that the boundary wire connections to
the charging station are properly connected
and not damaged. Check that the indicator
lamp in the charging station is still flashing
blue.

3. Switch the connections between the guide
wire and the boundary wire in the charging
station.
Start by switching connection AL and G1.
If the indicator lamp is lit with a solid green
light, then the break is somewhere on the
boundary wire between AL and the point
where the guide wire is connected to the
boundary wire (thick black line in the
illustration).

To rectify the fault you will need boundary
wire, connector(s) and coupler(s):
a) If the suspected boundary wire is short
then it is easiest to exchange all of the
boundary wire between AL and the point
where the guide wire is connected to the
boundary wire (thick black line).
b) If the suspected boundary wire is long
(thick black line) then do as follows: Put AL
and G1 back to their original positions. Then
disconnect AR. Connect a new loop wire to
AR. Connect the other end of this new loop
wire at the middle of the suspected wire
section.
