We teach you how to reset echo dot. If you are having issues with your echo dot, gotten a new wifi router resetting your echo for can sometimes fix the issues.

Or if you are giving away your echo dot or moving to a new house it's important to know how to reset your echo dot so you can clear the information you have on the device below you give it away.
There are 4 buttons on the echo dot, the + volume button, - volume button, mute button, and the action button. To reset the Echo Dot you need to press and hold the "action" button for 30+ seconds until the yellow light comes on the echo dot and it goes through its light sequence and you have confirmed that the echo dot has been reset.
once the echo dot is reset it will start back up with a blue light and announce via voice that it is ready for set up.

Thanks so much for sharing this info, I've been spending an hour trying to get my echo to work. I didn't realize when I moved and changed internet accounts that I would need to totally refresh it.

[@OneHourSmartHome]

Kelly, happy to help. Glad it worked out for you!

[@luannebowling5682]

Great info and thanks. We changed wi-fi modems and set up a repeater. Alexa would not operate my smart home devices at all. It would not recognize the server. I tried everything I could think of. You just saved me another headache on a different day!

Hi . Thanks for this, it really worked for me as i was trying from last one hour .

[@curecidp]

Brilliant! Your reset method just worked perfectly on my Echo Dot 4th Gen. It had stopped responding to any voice commands. Not even to the “Hey Alexia” or just “Alexia” command. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us in such a straightforward and how-to way! I’m a subscriber for life!

Alexia isn’t the wake word.

[@kumaresansv1067]

It works completely!!OMG

[@marmoleriaalba7018]

like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, kzbin.infoUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

[@angocabvw]

Thanks man appreciate the tutorial

[@janiesantonacita2395]

Great tips!! This was a great video. But I have another problem. My older sister and I both have Alexas and mine is connected to hers somehow. Like when I play music it stops and calls me up all the time to say, “it’s playing on mine.” We tried fixing this issues before, but nothing we thought about worked! Do you think resetting it would work?
