Hi @slothman1global ,

If you open and close that door or window, does the sensor still light up? If it does, then it's probably not a power or battery issue.

But that leaves communication issues. You don't mention that any other sensors are having trouble, and indeed you've already tried moving the problem sensor to a different location already. Have you already tried removing that sensor from your system, and reinstalling?

If that doesn't work, then yes, the next step is a replacement of that sensor under warranty. Our Support team can help.
