Ring Alarm
Door Sensor reports open status when it appears to be closed
I have a problem with door sensor(s). The door sensor reports open status when I attempt to arm the system. When I go to the reported door, which is closed, when I open it the sensor flashes blue light indicating that it has opened, despite the fact that it was reporting open status while closed. To make it work properly again I only have to open / close the door a couple of times and all will be well another few days or weeks. I have already had one replaced for this problem and now I have a second sensor failing in the identical manner. I'm beginnig to wonder if this is actually a contact sensor issue or a controller firmware issue.

[quote="New_Smart_Home, post:3, topic:7863"] sensor [/quote] I am having the same issue - "front door is open" says Ring but it is closed - support by Ring is basically non existent for that reason I would never buy a Ring system again. Was on the phone for 45 min three times, while the reps were friendly, their english skills were horrible - I am just amazed that no one at Ring can solve this issue!!! I have to operate my Ring system with the front door sensor disabled??? What good is the system for then? LOL

Ring chat support is useless and irresponsible. My chat was ended abruptly.

I had the problem with 1st gen sensor replaced with second gen AND still wont “close” My next step is to move the base, its a bit far. Funny because it will work for days then gives up, usually after SETTING THE ALARM! Which is nerve wracking.
