Picture
What you might notice
- Stuck in charging station
- Charging station blocked
Can I DIY this?
Easy DIY (~10-30 min) on Husqvarna Automower 300 Series. Clear debris first; replace a worn brush/filter only if cleaning fails. If the same alert comes back after a clean install, book a Brisbane meetup.
What you need
- Soft dry cloth
Do this
- Move the mower clear of furniture/obstacles; remove narrow-passage traps; keep grass within model max height; clear grass chunks from the blade area.
- Stuck in station: remove objects blocking exit. Charging station blocked: clear docking path, level the station base, clean oxidation on contact plates/strips, check power cable.
- For wire installs: ensure ~2 m straight guide approach; reseat guide connectors under the station.
- If docking still fails, request dealer service / repair.
Parts (only if cleaning fails)
- None for a basic clean
