We have the base model and it does not come with the inductive charger. Have found one as its common to many vehicles. Once plugged in it does not work so am wondering if it has to be enabled in the car's system via OBDII. Otherwise I will have to figure out the pinout and connect directly to switched live.

Any advice gratefully received.

Andrew.

If it’s the Renault etec one and u have a iPhone I wouldn’t bother with it, rarely works properly as it detects the magnets in back of iPhone and won’t change, have tested it with android and works flawless

I went with the ESR and sits perfectly on flat top of dash surrounding the Speedo and runs don’t into 12v socket behind plastic trims. Mated to a 30amp plug it charges and magnet holds perfect even iPhone 15 pro max
