Thought so, the electronics in the charger engage the relay to complete the high voltage circuit between the car and the power input source.

They are used in many devices and over time can get a bit sticky and fail to move.

A year into ownership and still love the drive of the L494.

First service coming up in a month or so with a few warranty issues to sort out:

* Passenger vanity mirror light doesn't light up
* Tailgate has dropped slightly
* If I start remotely pre-heating the cabin while the charger is plugged in, I get nothing more than a waft of barely warm air. In winter, it won't defrost in the morning when plugged in overnight.
* While walking to the car from a restaurant recently, I set the heating on using the remote app. The car was toasty when I reached it, but attempting to drive off gave me a "transmission fault". Shutting the car down and turning it back on sorted it, but kind of embarrassing in front of my guests.
* The centre display seems to have been warped at some point so there's nasty brown blooms on the screen when I look at it with polarising sunglasses on

How much of this they'll rectify under warranty is another matter.... 2021 P400e Autobiography
