USB Outlet Question 2014 2500

[Oryguntroutbum]

I have a 2014 2500 Tradesman. For as long as I can remember, the usb charger on the lower right side of the dash has been an issue. It works, but every time I shut off the truck and restart it, I have to unplug the device, and reinsert it to get it to charge again.

Anyone have any insight as to what is going on with that. Thanks in advance.

Start with trying a different cable, then someone else's phone to see if you can duplicate. Next is type of phone, it is one of the newer, bigger phones? Some of those can draw too much power.

By any chance do you use an iPhone? There's a bug that effects with some charging ports.
It best to use a plug in PD or QC3 charger that plugs into a 12V power outlet for charging.
