How to unlock the stuck charging cable of the Hyundai Ioniq.

Model: Hyundai Inster MK 1 - Years 2024-2026
Part: Checks and maintenance

Let's see how to unlock the charging cable of the Hyundai Inster in case it gets stuck inside the car. There is indeed an emergency procedure that begins by ensuring the car is unlocked (using the remote control). We will try to normally pull the cable from the car's socket, but if it remains stuck, we need to locate the emergency release cable, which is purple and located near the charging socket (as shown clearly in the video). We then pull the purple cable: we will hear a click indicating it has been released, after which we can manually remove the charging cable. The purple cable should automatically retract into its housing. The cable locking system will be operational again during the next charging session.
