On troubleshooting to check the connection status of my nest connect it keeps going to yellow factory setting, even after I have pressed the button quickly to cancel the factory setting. Not able to get a green light.

Hello NancyG13,

 

That sounds frustrating, but it will certainly be my pleasure to help you with your Nest Connect. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to fix the yellow light issue with your Nest Connect and prevent accidental factory resets:

Button Press:

  • Double-check the button press: Ensure you're pressing the button on your Nest Connect quickly. A short press (about 1 second) should restart the device, while holding it for much longer (over 8 seconds) triggers a factory reset.

Power Cycle:

  1. Unplug the Nest Connect from the power outlet.
  2. Wait for 30 seconds.
  3. Plug the Nest Connect back in.
  4. Observe the light: After restarting, the light should turn green if the connection is successful.

Best regards.

 

Helio.
