Google nest mini unresponsive

BeardedTXdad — Sat, 30 Oct 2021 13:49:24 GMT

Woke up this morning and my nest mini would not do anything, upon further investigating it only has 2 white leds on.

I tried unplugging it and nothing, goes straight back to 2 white leds.

Also tried the factory reset of turning the mute switch on and holding the center for w 5 secs. Still nothing.

Went to Google home app and it doesn't detect the speaker. So I deleted it from the app.

I looked on here for answers as alot of people have posted the same question but the only reply are from boys stating "we've opened a case for you" but still no one answered the question on what to do.

So if Google is opening tickets that means they are looking at each situation to try to identify what's happening, when product experts like myself answer know that we are community members, not Google employees, so if we are stumped then we escalate to the Google team.

Saying this.. I found this thread on Reddit, TLDR unplug it, plug it back in, then unplug it after one full minute, and repeat this 8 times.

This happened to mine as well. I unplugged and let the capacitors drain before plugging back in, maybe 3-5 minutes. Then when I plugged it back in, all 4 lights came up and it was connected through the google home app.
