Daytime picture is pink

I’ve read through other postings here and it doesn’t seem to be any of the issues posted- not too hot or cold  and night vision is set to auto. Any other reasons why it would look like it’s looking through rose colored glasses?

Sometimes due to light issues this can occur at night but during the day is unusual. Have you tried doing a restart on the camera?

Just restarted- looks the same unfortunately

Hey Liog2step,

 

Thanks for the help, Rubes.

 

Ensure the camera is installed in a supported location and not in an area prone to overheat or direct sunlight. Try to move the camera to a different location to see if that helps. Also, unplug the camera from its power source and reposition it after it’s had sufficient time to cool.

 

Let me know how it goes by replying to this thread.

 

Thanks,

Archie

Hi folks,

 

I appreciate the help @archie. I wanted to check if you still need help with this. If you have other questions and concerns, feel free to let me know.


Thanks,
Steve

I haven't tried to move it.  It's hardwired and in the location I need it to be so moving it isn't really an option. It's been this way since installing it, doesn't feel hot to the touch and it this way all day and not in direct sunlight.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for the reply. If the Night Vision settings are on Auto, switch it to Manual. Then, manually toggle the setting on and off. Let us know how it goes. Also, when and where did you purchase your Nest Camera?

 

Regards,

Steve

Hi @SteveT1  I've checked the night vision and toggled it.  When It goes to Always On the feed turns grayscale, when I turn it back to off or auto, it goes back to pink.  I purchased it on ebay (from a reputable seller) it was new and sealed in the box.

Hey there- so magically one day, it started working. I am not sure what changed- nothing I did. So I’m all set now!  Thanks for following up!
