7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your EVA LOGIK Smart Light Switch, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Switch does not turn on/off manually. | No power, incorrect wiring, or faulty bulb. | Check circuit breaker. Verify wiring connections (Line, Load, Neutral, Ground). Test with a known working bulb. |
| Switch cannot connect to Wi-Fi. | Incorrect Wi-Fi band (5GHz), weak signal, or incorrect password. | Ensure your router is broadcasting a 2.4GHz network. Move the switch closer to the router. Re-enter Wi-Fi password carefully. Reset the switch to pairing mode. |
| Voice control not working. | Smart Life skill not enabled/linked, device not discovered, or incorrect voice command. | Verify Smart Life skill is enabled and linked in Alexa/Google Home app. Redo device discovery. Use correct device name in commands. |
| Light flickers or does not turn off completely. | Incompatible bulb type or load, or minimum load not met. | Ensure bulbs are compatible and within wattage limits. Some LED bulbs may require a bypass capacitor (not included) if flickering occurs at low loads. |
| 3-way setup not functioning correctly. | Incorrect wiring, or connected to another smart/dimmer switch. | Review 3-way wiring diagram. Ensure the other switch is a standard (dumb) 3-way switch, not a smart or dimmer switch. |
| Switch becomes unresponsive. | Temporary software glitch or power issue. | Perform a power cycle by turning off the circuit breaker for 30 seconds, then restoring power. Check for firmware updates in the Smart Life app. |
