On the PFL you did this. Wait until it says on dashboard. "Finished Uncharged" White letters.
If the message is Finished and it is in Green colour then it is balancing.
Wait for the white message "Finished - Uncharged" and the whole process has been completed.

But how do you know it is happening and has finished on a Facelift version?

You can see on the iSMART app that power drops to a trickle whilst it balances. When it’s finished it’s 0kW

So I have an Ohme charger and I suspect it isn't doing that....it seems to get a message back from the car at 100% and stops the session. Unlike in the PFL where as you say you can see the trickle charge taking place.

I use home assistant instead of iSMART and see the following on a 7kW charger. At around 80% charge it does a blip to 4kW then back 6.4kW back -4 and then 0. So it might be doing it on your Ohme but you can’t see it.

On the PFL you could see it on the IHD pulling between 200 and 400w doing whatever it did for some time at the end of it's full charge.
