Hi ...

 

My two arlo cameras have been working great until now. My rear camera seams to work fine during the day and the picture is great, however on an evening the night vision does not even come on, no IR lights , nothing. Ive tried rebooting , new batteries etc but still no joy. I wondered if anybody could help please ? 

 

Ive had the arlo system in place since june. I therefore was wondering is it under a guarantee or warranty etc ??? 

 

Thanks 

 

Kind Regards - Richard

I bought 4 pack system from BB for Christmas for home insalled on Jan 2 or 3rd.....Immediately had one camera (1) over garage/droveway location that had constant red tint during daytime.  After browsing here and reading suggestions I have to physically get on ladder and remove camera from fixed mount and shut off, remove batteries, re-install batteries and turn on again.

 

This usually fixes the issue and the picture returns to normal HD quality with normal color perspective consistent with other cameras on system.  this problem continues to occur and now requires occasional light tapping of the unit on the palm / soft part of hand.  Their is an audible click it seems for the night vision filter to turn on and off I suspect.

 

Regardless, I want to return exchange this camera for replacement - a $500 investment should not require climbing a ladder once a week to manually turn off, uninstall batteries, soft tap and restart and pray again.
