EV chargers need minimal maintenance — keep connectors clean and dry, inspect the cable for damage occasionally, check that the GFCI breaker hasn’t tripped, and update firmware when prompted. Outdoor chargers need a quick yearly look for weather seal integrity. Most quality units have no other routine service needs.
