My DS3 stop charging after a month of driving, it was working beautiful and then when I plug it in it flash green starts to charge and then stop and the dash board says its fully charged but I only have 10% battery left.
I changed the charger and that did not work. everything else on the car works.
It retries to start charging twice before it goes full red and shut off.

Re: DS3 charging issues
Assuming you're using the correct charger for the output type, then a red fixed light would suggest a malfunction. In this case it would need a specialist like DS Automobiles to look at it.

Yes a red fault light is the end result.
It will have to be done remotely as no DS Auto in my area.
Can you recommend a remote operator? we have a Diagnostic tool that can be accessed online.

Re: DS3 charging issues
If it's that new then surely the car is still under warranty?

Re: DS3 charging issues
At this point I need help identifying the issue and getting the part or doing an upgrade, warranty is the lease of my concerns

Re: DS3 charging issues
What error messages does the diagnostic give? Give the codes as well as the description.

Re: DS3 charging issues
It is connected to the negative battery terminal wiring, just before the clamp.
