2nd Gen Alarm Keypad not lighting up
Hooked up my new Gen 2 Ring Alarm today. Noticed keypad is not lighting up at all any ideas why? It works but it is supposed to light up when dark in room and it is not.

I just activated a new Ring system tonight, and the keypad won't light up the numbers with motion. The power save mode is not activated, so that isn't the issue. It will light up only the Disarm, Home, or Away buttons but nothing else. Anyone have a solution?

Hey neighbors, you can now choose between the following 3 modes for the Ring Alarm Keypad (2nd Generation): * **Keep Mode Button Lit.** LED lights will stay on at all times (when plugged into a working power source). * **Motion Turns on Lights.** LEDs light up when sensing motion. * **Button Press Turns on Lights.** LEDs light up only when you press a button on your Keypad (preserves battery power). To choose Keypad modes, open your Ring app, navigate to your Keypad device on the main menu, then go to the **LED Settings** tile. You can learn more in [this](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042894911-Ring-Alarm-Keypad-2nd-Gen-Lights-and-Buttons-Explained) Help Center article. :slight_smile:

I've never changed power mode and my keypad lights suddenly stopped lighting. It occurs whether it's plugged in or not and changing led options has no effect. It was on "button press turns on lights" but it no longer lights up.

Hi @Ringer777. I'd recommend trying the troubleshooting steps listed [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042155432-Troubleshooting-your-Ring-Alarm-Keypad-2nd-generation-) to see if any of those restore the LED settings. If that doesn't work and you're still not seeing any lights on the Keypad, please give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406). If you are outside of the US, please visit [here ](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-gb/articles/213608406)to see how to contact support.

Hey there, @Pokeypup! It sounds like there may be a power save mode enabled. The Ring Alarm Keypad has two power save options: - **With power save on:** Mode buttons light up when a button is pressed. Numbers light up when it’s dark and any button is pressed. This option will conserve the most energy. - **With power save off:** Mode buttons light up when motion is detected. Numbers light up when it’s dark and either (1) a button is pressed or (2) motion is detected. In order to turn on and off the Keypad power save mode, you will need to open the Ring app Menu, select Devices, select your Keypad, then use the power save mode toggle on the Keypad device page. I hope this helps! :)
