My Wyze Lamp Socket v2 is not turning on.

Problem

Your Wyze Lamp Socket v2’s status light does not light up, or the device is not powering on. 

Troubleshooting

  1. If possible, check the lamp socket's status light to see if it is on or off.
  2. Check if Wyze Lamp Socket v2 is in a socket with a dimmer switch.
    • If it is in a socket with a dimmer switch, we recommend moving the device to a different socket, as dimmer switches are not recommended.
      • Note: Wyze Lamp Socket v2 does not have the ability to adjust bulb brightness.
    • If it is in a dimmer switch and cannot be moved to a different socket, ensure the dimmer switch is turned up to its highest setting.
  3. Verify that the lamp socket is installed securely in the socket.
    • Note: It should not be too tight or too loose.
  4. Power cycle Wyze Lamp Socket v2.
    1. Manually turn off the socket via the light switch for 10 seconds, then turn it back on.
    2. Note: This will power cycle both Wyze Lamp Socket v2 and any attached Wyze Cam.
  5. Check if the socket is receiving power by trying a different lamp socket or bulb in the affected socket.
  6. If possible, try moving the affected lamp socket to a different socket.
