Is it supposed to do that or is it loose and I should work on it?

Should the red dot light stay on always?

Thanks,

With the Porsche charger, the red light doesn't always stay on. Once the battery is charged, it will stop charging/light will go off, and then will come back on to maintain. That's how mine works.

How many hours/days before it comes back on? Mine was off for 2 days before I opened the door and pushed the socket back into the cigarette lighter and light came on.
