- Our litter robot was Flashing Yellow Slow & Fast, then Fast Flashing Blue despite being empty and lastly just Random Lights. Watch for the solution to this, replacing the DFI sensor fixed things for us but some may have to go a step further and replace the control board as well.

Really great detail and video, thanks for the deep dive
My pleasure! Thanks for taking the time to comment, it really helps motivate me to post more!
I'm so angry at my Litter Robot. Breaking down all the time, so freaking frustating.
Has my video helped you at all? What kind of problems are you facing? I appreciate you supporting my channel, with your help, I am getting closer to 1,000 subscribers! :)
@@CravingSolutions Please help! I have tried EVERYTHING but this blue light will not go off. I want to cry from frustration.
For the money I paid an instruction manual would have been nice. I've had it since November and now I'm getting continual torque faults. There's no obstruction. It just keeps happening.
Have you cleaned the sensor? I know if that completely fails and there is nothing in the way of the sensor then it most looker needs to be replaced..
What lights are you seeing coming on?
It seems like the replacement parts rarely fix the problem completely. Even if their blinking lights diagnose the problem, it's almost easier to replace the entire base. These things are very finnicky. I had one that worked fine for 2 years and suddenly stopped working due to a pinch sensor error that won't go away no matter what I do.
Just tossed both of my 3’s out in the garbage, got a 4 and they’ve fixed most of the issues.
Just bring back the first generation liter robot…never had a problem until they started to “upgrade”
Never had the first one, but everything has wear and tear! LOL! Thanks for commenting!
Having the same issue, mine stopped in the dump position,after cleaning the unit it started the slow blue and resetting gave me the fast yellow
How would fix the Blue yellow and red light going lighting one after another. It doesn't completely dump the litter it only goes half ways then goes back, and all the lights start to blink.
That’s what’s happening to mine. The yellow was blinking fast.. then the blue.. my cat jumped fast out of the litter robot 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ wish we could just send it back.and get a new one …
I have a problem with mine, the blue light flashes as if the drawer was full even if it is empty and when I press reset, it turns blue again as if everything was normal but each time a cycle occurs ends it starts flashing blue again, I cleaned the level sensor but that doesn't solve the problem, if it was my sensor that was defective, the blue light would continue to flash blue even if I pressed reset?
You seem to have so much knowledge Can you tell me what a solid blue and yellow mean? I have taken my robot apart cleaned all the sensors, tightened the screw on the wheel that cycles the robot. Done all the support suggestions and still I have solid cycle light with solid ready light. This just started a few days ago.
Isn’t that the sleep mode? You just have to push the Cycle button for 5 seconds, then the sleep mode is turned off.
Nice video. Drawer full is flashing. All is clean and it's empty. I hit reset and then right away I have a fast flashing yellow. I bypassed the pinch all together. Unit will not reset at all. Any ideas?
Was you able to fix this issue??? That’s what I have right now…. Tried everything and it still doesn’t work
Every time I put the drawer back in the ready light flashes blue and will not cycle correctly I reached out to LR multiple times and no response 😢
Empty bag,below drawer cleaned the sensor tried the calibration for putting drawer back in I’m stumped
@@kaitlynnopp2765 I have the same issue. These things suck.
If you're getting false indications, then you may need to replace the DFI sensor as I mentioned in the video. I know it is very frustrating. I apologize for missing your comment, but I appreciate you supporting my channel. With your help, we're getting closer to 1,000 subscribers! :)
Is there a way to bypass all of these sensors? I’m fed up with this thing.
I’m at the point that I want to just connect a switch to the motor to go each direction and run it manually
Taking out the sensors would make this one big sifting box. Please tell me what's going on, as I may be able to help. Thanks for taking the time to comment and supporting my channel. With your help, we're getting closer to 1,000 subscribers! :)
@@CravingSolutions I already fixed this. They sent a new base complete under the warranty. Thank for responding though.
@@dirtyminerapparel Your welcome so glad this was fixed for you! :)
Maybe you can help me. My LR3 was slow flashing blue as if it were full, even after I emptied it and reset it. I just kept resetting it and each cycle it would start again. Today it was actually full so I emptied and replaced the bag, reset it, and it started to rapidly flash yellow. I know that means there is a pincher issue, which I recently did before. I took it apart and cleaned the pinchers and ensured they were touching. Put it back together and plugged it in - back to the blue slow flash - reset it - back to yellow rapid flash - rest it - back to slow blue --- you get the picture? So now my robot is not cycling at all and I have no idea what to do. I am beyond annoyed, haven't even had this thing for 2 years and I keep it well-maintained.
I have the same issue. Did you get it sorted since you put this message on?
@@larissagalla9694 Sorry for the delayed response, but yes! It as the pinch detector. They sent a new one free of charge with video instructions emailed to me and it fixed it!
I have this issue now. I took took the pinch detectors out and taped them which took care of the flashing yellow. Worked for a few weeks and now I have the slow blue blinking light at the end of the cycle like you described where it's fine if I manually reset it. These machines are so fickle and annoying considering the price
@@ugabugay2k They really are. Thankfully since this issue, it has been back to normal but having to take a huge machine like that apart manually is ridiculous. And it being a little under 2 years old at that. I'd love to get another one eventually, but only if I know for sure that the issues have been resolved. It has been a pain-saver for the most part though.
Thanks Man! Mine blinks blue rapidly, even after cleaning the sensor. Any idea?
Just like I mentioned in the video, you might have to replace the DFI sensor. Thanks for commenting and supporting my channel! :)
pull out drawer and shake down the waste or change the bag all together, if that does not work wipe down your sensers on both sides of the drawer. It happened to me once when my bag was obstructing the drawer sensor.
I’m absolutely at the end of my patience with this machine. I’ve tried everything plus more. Still not working. It’s worked perfectly okay once it started not working it’s continuously not working.
Sorry to hear that! Is there any possible way I could help with this matter? Thank you for taking the time to comment and supporting my channel!
@@CravingSolutions Thank you for the reply. I will never go back on my post.
I have a rare disease PSP,after scrutinising other litter boxes minutely, I have been left with no options but either to re home my beautiful cats or purchase another one ,in the hope that it will last longer than I am expected to survive. Such a very expensive item.
I read about the company( due to my financial situation ) to find how much money it is making from the purchase of this product, mind blowing amount. I hope it invests some of the profits into Customer Service/Support going forward.
It still infuriates me.
Does anyone know the position of the 2 magnets within the 3 slots of the bottom globe under the rubber mat area. I took the bottom globe apart and they fell out. Not sure proper positioning of the 2 magnets within the 3 holes. Help please
Mine when i turn it on slowly blinks blue. When i press reset it then blinks quickly yellow then turns back to slowly blinking blue..... Help please. You seem to know alot. Thanks in advance.
Also no Matter what it will not turn.
That’s what’s happening to mine. The yellow was blinking fast.. then the blue.. my cat jumped fast out of the litter robot 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
Dude put some moulding on that wall!!

I'm sorry, I don't understand your comment?
