Hi @Amandaengborg,
It seems you're experiencing intermittent light failure with your Nest Floodlight while the camera function remains unaffected. This suggests a potential issue with the floodlight's electrical components or the connection between the floodlight and the power source.
What I can suggest is:
Check Power Connection:
- Ensure the power supply to the floodlight is secure and there's no visible damage to the wiring.
- Try a different outlet or circuit breaker to isolate the issue.
Inspect Floodlight for Damage:
- Look for any physical damage to the floodlight, especially around the light bulbs or the electrical components.
- Check for signs of water damage or insect infestation.
Update Firmware:
- Ensure your Nest device has the latest firmware installed. Check for updates in the Google Home app.
Additional Tips:
- Monitor for Patterns: Try to identify when the light failure occurs (e.g., after a certain time, during specific weather conditions). This information can help pinpoint the cause.
- Check for Overheating: If the floodlight feels unusually hot, it could indicate a component failure. Allow it to cool down before attempting to use it again.
Remember: Always prioritize safety when working with electrical equipment. If you're unsure about any of these steps, it's best to consult a professional electrician.
By following these steps, you should be able to diagnose and resolve the issue with your Nest Floodlight.
I’ll be waiting for your comments.
Best regards,
Josh.
