Wireless HD new batteries still doesn't work? VMC3030

Russ22 — Tue, 11 Jun 2019 20:32:23 GMT

Have a couple of Arlo wireless (VMC3030) cameras - changed the batteries in one which are lithium Duracell 123 which work fine camera 1 which synched without issue. However camera 2 using same Duracell 123, the blue light flashes for a second and that's it - doesnt sync and will not flash blue or orange as though it acknowledges batteries are present (small blue flash) but will not let me go any further. Any advise would be most welcome and appreciated cheers

just confirm batteries are in correcctly, and if you have a voltmeter, the new 123 cells should read 3.2V

Yes to both and the light flashes Blue for 1 sec.

They are working fine in camera 1

Try briefly pressing the base sync button - don't hold it for 2 seconds - and then the camera sync button.
