Hi @Emmettx,

 

Thanks for posting in the community. I understand that your Nest Speaker shows four flashing lights daily after an automation runs. I appreciate the information you've shared so far. No worries, let's work together to get this resolved. To help with that, I have a few questions for you:

  • What type of Nest Speaker do you have? Please use the following article to check the model: Google Nest speakers and displays.
  • What's the color or pattern of the lights shown? Check out the following article to learn about the LED lights on your speaker.
  • Could you share what that automation does? For example, does it start music, control smart lights, or announce the weather?

Any additional details you can provide will be helpful.

 

Regards,
Jonathan

I'm not sure what type it is.  The order states ##############.  Nest Audio Chalk.   Four little white lights behind the speaker gauze.  The automation is to turn on and off all 6 living room lights together, without having to have a separate one for each light.  After it runs these four lights behind the gauze flash interminably.  Why?  What is wrong with it?

Hi @Emmettx,

 

Thanks for your update and for the additional information you shared. The flashing lights usually mean your Nest speaker is in the middle of completing a command, like your automation. To help me figure out what's happening, while the four lights are flashing, does your Nest Audio complete the automation (do the living room lights turn on and off)? Also, you may want to check out the following article to learn about the LED lights on your speaker.

Please keep me posted.

Yes the automation works, but after the units four lights remain flashing all evening.
