Outdoor camera won't reconnect as won't stop flashing blue.
Hi
I disconnected my outdoor camera, and now can't reconnect.
I just get a flashing blue light, but it's not connected to the base station to record.
I've ran battery down, recharged, held reset button for 30 seconds, but nothing, still the flashing blue light.
Anyone experience this?
Thanks

Hey simply safe! Address this problem! A lot of people are having it as of recently. It sounds like your equipment is going defunct and you are ignoring this! If you do not take care of out of date equipment I will find a different company in which to spend my money with!

Ome of mine synced with no problem. The other one is also flashing blue and won't connect. I've charged the battery, taken it out, pur it back in several times. Nothing is working.

I am having the same issue. Charged them, the app still claimed they were dead so I disconnected them and now they are flashing blue and I cannot reconnect.

@LakeLife @Felterc @robinjeremyland thank you all for reporting. Could you confirm that these are the symptoms you're seeing?
And also have you tried resetting the Outdoor Camera? You can do so by pressing the Pairing Button on the back of the cam for 30 seconds. When you hear the chime, that means the reset was successful, and you can set it up again through the SimpliSafe app.

I was also sent replacement cameras, for all of mine, and the replacements are exhibiting the exact same issue, this is a much more systemic issue than SimpliSafe is acknowledging

Hi, is there a solution to this issue or is the device faulty? Appears to be quite common, but no mention of what the issue is? Reset button does nothing. My other cameras work, so doesn't appear to be base station related.
Thanks

I'm having the same issue as well. Camera originally worked but i haven't been able to view on the app. Removed camera from system and now it will not reconnect back to the base station. I tried the 30 second reset 2 times with no luck.
