Troubleshooting
Cable not charging device
Ensure the USB-A end is firmly connected to a working power source and the USB-C end is fully inserted into the device. Try a different USB-A port or power adapter. Confirm the device and charger support the cable's 60W output.
Slow data transfer speeds
Verify that both the source (USB-A port) and the target device (USB-C port) support high-speed data transfer. Ensure no other high-bandwidth operations are running simultaneously. Test with a different USB-C device if possible.
Cable feels unusually warm during charging
Some warmth is normal during fast charging. However, if the cable becomes excessively hot, disconnect immediately and test with a lower-power charger or a different device to rule out a fault.
Intermittent connection
Check the connectors for any debris or damage. Ensure the cable is not being pulled or stressed. Try a different USB-A port and USB-C device to isolate the issue.
