Great informative video. Thank you! Before I did the repair, I checked with RING, and apparently I had an extended warranty. They're shipping me a new unit..."For Free"! Make the call before you do the repair.
It worked but the diagram doesn’t have the white wires all coming together with the white house wire. However, someone graciously added this to the comments section and after doing this the lights come on now. Thanks so much!!!!
Good video. The tools were great to watch. Scissors LOL. I am doing the same thing 40 buck for the new light to harvest for the ring setup.. I would never pay for a replacement. I would not even get a replacement.
@@icanbreathenow1 just saw this sorry for the delay, I've done both now, brought back to costco and returned to ring, they replaced it. Both companies are in it for the long haul.
How can you known if the red wire from the camera module can handle the current to light the two floodlights directly, wouldn't it be better if you used a relay circuit
Tnisesm 2PCS Power Relay SPST(1 NO) AC120V Coil, 30A SPST 120 VAC from Amazon. I used a relay to protect the ring camera 22 gauge wire from being over loaded. You don't want to burn up the ring camera module circuitry. Working great with two night chaser bulbs from Amazon too
So I won't even need that DC convert when I have to replace my lights? Makes me wonder why they even felt the need to put that in this floodlight in the first place.
Do the fixtures you use as the replacement have to be motion activated? I have some normal floodlights laying around in the shop and would like to know if I can just use them. Thanks
The wiring diagram at the end of the video isn’t completely intuitive. The white sensor and two white floodlight lines all need to be tied into the white power line. When I did this everything worked as if it were a new unit out of the box.
@@Telmenni I’m going off memory but the black wire from the sensor is spliced directly into the house black wire. The red sensor wire is spliced with the two black wires from the lights. The white sensor wire, two white wires from the lights and house white wire are all spliced together.
I have to make a call to talk to them. I heard they won't fix it or offer a replacement, but instead they offer a discount. Definitely not going to be happy if they offer that. What's the point of the warranty if they don't make it right?
If after you attempted this and your lights stay on then you may have wired it incorrectly. The red wire from the camera is essentially the on/off switch. When the sensor is triggered then power is sent to the source to turn on. I am unable to upload a diagram but generally speaking connect the 2 black wires from the lights together and the red together. Do not connect the black wires to the black wire from the AC source.

New or refurbished? I’m in the same boat waiting for mine.
How many years warranty on the product.?

Thank you for this! Not only do my lights work again, but they're much brighter than before! (2 250W LED bulbs).
Your video was on point and the wiring sketch at the end save my day as I had it wrong the first video I had watched…Thank you.
This is exactly what mine is doing. I was getting ready to take it down to see what's wrong with it. Thanks for sharing the info.
Turns out the controller was fine on mine and it was actually failed LED assemblies.

hi J T
Bringing mine back to costco for a new one but you did a great job and very informative. Thank you
Did Costco take it back?? I don't want to do this either

Thank you for this video! I did this yesterday. It was quick and easy!
This was great! My uncle did this in 15 minutes..Thank you
Worked like a charm!!! Thanks!
Thank you for this video. It saved me money👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I did this and it was very easy. Thank you
Very useful and good instructions.

Can you provide a link to this and the bulbs from Amazon?
Also how to wire it in?
Please and thank you in advance
Excellent! I was looking for this wondering about the same thing and
Great fix! I followed all instructions however, the lights stays on. Did someone have the same issue?
Yes. Same issue
I'd say that's not a great fix then as the light stay on
Hello, it’s working but i hear some static when watching the recorded or live videos. Can you think of any reason for this?
Wow that is awesome 👌
So I won't even need that DC convert when I have to replace my lights? Makes me wonder why they even felt the need to put that in this floodlight in the first place.
Awesome hack!
Do the fixtures you use as the replacement have to be motion activated? I have some normal floodlights laying around in the shop and would like to know if I can just use them. Thanks
No tou just need the bulb sockets
I bought the same flood light but I cannot get it to work

@@peterortiz4212 does the light stay on constantly?
@@Telmenni No - it works the same as the ring integrated lights. It is motion activated and can toggle on/off via the app.
@@peterortiz4212 i just connected everything now but my light is constantly on. How did you connect all the wiring?
@@Telmenni I’m going off memory but the black wire from the sensor is spliced directly into the house black wire. The red sensor wire is spliced with the two black wires from the lights. The white sensor wire, two white wires from the lights and house white wire are all spliced together.
Ring offers a after warranty disc. of 35 percent for those interested.

Works Perfect Sir But!!! Lights stay on what did I do wrong. please reply.
Me too
Did this today... works except no siren or anything sound related now. Otherwise it works.
Do you have instructions for the Eufy version?
Perfect
Is there a way you can turn it off manually on my phone? Without using the light switch
Didn't understand the wiring diagram
I think I did something wrong! I connected them but the lights are always on
Did you figure it out?
Woulda been nice to have it in reg speed. 🤷🏻♂️
ring will replaced it if you buy the extended warranty
the issue is the capacitor in the led driver most of the time. just buy led driver
No need for it to be motion activated. Two lightbulbs with 1/2” male connections will thread right in.
Music is awful. Not necessary . This is alot of messing around to get the device working correctly
