The drying steps for electric vehicle chargers with water ingress are as follows:
1. Cut off power: Immediately turn off the power of the charger and unplug the plug to ensure safety and prevent electric shock and further damage.
2. Surface drying: Use a clean towel or tissue to dry the surface of the charger as much moisture as possible, removing as much moisture as possible.
3. Natural air drying: Place the charger in a well ventilated place and let it dry naturally. This process may take some time to ensure that the moisture inside the charger evaporates completely. Avoid using heat sources such as hair dryers and ovens to accelerate drying, in order to avoid damaging the internal components of the charger.
Through the above steps, the electric vehicle charger should be able to air dry and resume use. If the charger still cannot work properly after drying, it is recommended to seek professional repair services.
