Reset Your Dexcom G6 Sensor

[@bluemiller7587]

WAIT!! Neil, i didn't see you pop your transmitter out. you restart just leaving the transmitter in????!!!! All this time I've been popping my transmitter out because that's how i was taught. you rock dude

[@robbiereider1790]

Neil, this is hands down the best walkthrough on the internet. Thanks for taking the time to capture, edit and post this. Truly grateful. I've been away from my supplies when my G6 "died" and longed for a simple solution. Well done.

[@NeilGreathouse]

Robbie Reider // Thanks Robbie! Tried to watch a lot of other videos, learn from trial & error...and make something that “5th grade Neil” could understand. 😂

[@JonaBlend]

Very good. I was looking for a solution & here it is. I had to rediscover how to do the restart but figured that out as well. This is my first time tricking the G6 but did it frequently with the G5. I'm in the new 2 hour warm up now. Thanks for your entertaining video.

1. it worked! 2. Hilarious video :) 3. interesting fact, when I pulled out my sensor slip for my numbers, it was exactly the same as your 9311. That might be helpful to anyone with out their old slip, try using our number.

My son has that same code 9311.

[@Lena.Jones13]

Me too (for my son). Just starting the G6 having been using the G5... 2 with the same code then one with a different code

[@shannonmaher1]

Lisa - My understanding is the that number has encoded in information about how the sensor responds. That way they can correct for the response of the sensor, and give you a reading without needing a calibration. If you put in a number that doesn't go with your sensor, who knows what results you will get. I would either take a picture with your phone, or write it down somewhere.

I'm new to the omnipod 5 and not being able to use my receiver is pissing me off.. please help

I'm on my last sensor before i can get a new prescription of 3, and 30 minutes after insertion last night i got an alert that i needed to replace my sensor! ... so now I'm following these steps :) Thanks for sharing this video! most of the videos i saw were about extending the sensor before it expires, and not after it had expired.

Must have been an update since this video released because I tried this exact procedure and the phone app stopped the 2nd warmup with "No Sensor Restarts". Was really hoping to stretch a month supply of sensor patches out at least another month.

Love the video and thank you for the tip!!! Dexcom is awesome technology but yes it is expensive and if you can get twice the life of the sensors then it’s a win!!!! Thank you!!! ☺️🙏🙏🙏

I have tried with 3 different sensors on the g6 and at no time has any reset. What am I doing wrong? I am sharing my info with a friend does that affect the reset. I really need this to work or I go back to poking my fingers and that doesn't last because I also am insulin-dependent and get tired of sticking myself. If you could please explain what I may be doing wrong.Thank you

[@dragonessdarkly]

If your not using your receiver do you think I could have it. Mine got broke and I can't get a replacement without paying 199.99. An I'm on a budget of 30.00 a month and my phone doesn't support the g6 app so I'm screwed.

[@Colombian1959]

Sorry I am a bit confused. I am so new to Dexcom do I still need to take off the transmitter to do all this?

[@terrybrown3719]

That’s my code and my sensor won’t work. Is that weird or do they just use same sensor numbers? I put the 9311 in and it kept asking for new sensor then my transmitter number which I had then it looked like it might work but then sadly no it told me to replace sensor so a brand new sensor down the tubes.😢.

[@matthiasnott]

Did you try without the 15 minutes? After watching your video, I checked out my box of three sensors. And maybe by accident, there are two sensors with the same code. So logically, it should allow me to swap them immediately. I've not tried, just thinking...

[@NeilGreathouse]

I have never tried it without the 15 minutes, that’s what “tricks” the Dexcom into resetting with the same sensor.

[@cliffboyd7]

I have tried all the methods to reset the G6 sensor. The only one that I can get to work at all is to carefully remove the transmitter, wait for at least 15 min, reinsert transmitter and then start the sensor again. That being said my phone and app are both updated to the latest version. Using an iPhone.

[@NeilGreathouse]

It’s so tricky to take out the transmitter sometimes!

[@petraherzog8364]

Hi Cliff. May I ask for more details on how you do this, please? I've tried all of the other tricks/hacks, but none seem to work on my Android.

[@kimrichmond4476]

Petra Herzog have you had any luck? I was just upgraded in Jan 2020 and also couldn’t get mine to restart using this process. FINALLY what worked for me-I removed it for about 2 minutes, reinserted, did the 15 minute wait without a code and then when I did enter a code, I used the PRIOR sensor number-Not reentering the current one. Have only done it once but it worked. Hope it might for you!

[@gailhill6773]

Neil: I am new to diabetes and Dexcom G6. I followed your instructions, it was a few hours before bedtime and it seemed to go ok but I turn my phone off at night and in the morning, the app has to reset as it connects back to WiFi, and I keep getting the same alert to change my sensor. I again followed your instructions but this time forgot the 15 minute wait time. I restarted it and followed it correctly. I am still getting the alerts that I need to change the sensor. Can you advise me on what might be happening? Did I totally mess it up? Can I reset it somehow so I can continue to wear it? I’m by no means wealthy and can’t afford the cost of 3 new ones each month. Help! Thank you!

Hey, Neil -- thanks for the informative, yet humorous, vid. Quick question -- I heard you mention something to the effect of your sensor lasting several weeks. When I restart I get no more than two to four days before the arrow is lost and it throws the 'Sensor Error -- Temporary Issue. Wait up to 3 hours.' I've tried multiple restart methods and my results are consistent...help?

Michael Pilcher // I’m on my 2nd full run through of the sensor I have in my arm right now. I do everything within my power to make sure it’s solid, in my arm, not peeling up, etc. And I can get almost 3 runs through the life-span of a sensor. I think some people have trouble with the sensors error because their sensor isn’t “healthy”. If that makes sense... Just do whatever you can to keep that thing solid in your arm, under the skin and taped down.

excellent video to explain the process better then most. As for myself I will stick to using xDrip+ on my Android phone which enables me to wear my G6 sensors on average from 26 to 40 days and NO restarts! Best to all in your T1 efforts its excellent that everyone is so willing to share their hacks!

[@dianejackson4881]

What is xDrip that you are referring to?

[@hellofolks5606]

but xdrip requires daily calibrations, right?

[@davidhayes9350]

@@dianejackson4881 xDrip+ is an opensource app that replaces the Dexcom app on your phone. Use of it enables the user to see a far more useful CGM graph, it restarts your transmitter at 90 days enabling you to use the transmitter until the battery is actually dead. Right now I have used my current transmitter 191 days. It auto or preemptively restarts your sensor sessions (G6) at day 9 and enables you to use a sensor as long as you can keep it stuck to you with NO restart delays such as you would have if you used traditional hacks to restart with Dexcom.
