I have a cam pan V2 running software ver 4.49.11.8391 that I have turned OFF in my living room but several times a day my wife notices it “spinning” like it does when it reboots. I have 4 other v2’s running and none exhibit this behavior. How do I go about diagnosing this? ---

Turned off by unplugging it, or turned off at the app? ---

To me, this indicates some kind of power problem. Could be the outlet – you could try moving it to a different outlet for a while…preferably one not on the same breaker…if it still does it, then you know it’s not the outlet/line. Could be the cord or power adapter – You could try using a different cord and power supply. Could be something inside the camera wore out. A guy here indicated that one of his pan V2 motors wore out and he fixed it by disconnecting the motor: > [@What do you do when your cameras stop working and they're out of warranty](https://forums.wyze.com/t/what-do-you-do-when-your-cameras-stop-working-and-theyre-out-of-warranty/292471/30): > > Had a Pan Cam V1 for a couple of years that worked brilliantly. Upgraded to a Pan Cam V2 and gave the V1 away to a friend. The V2 worked fine for about 18 month. Since then, random reboots, frequently dropped network connections, and a progressively noisier panning motor. Out of the box the V2 was clearly superior to the V1. Noticeably improved night vision and faster to respond to remote access. But the V2 has been less reliable than the V1 over time.

I just turned on my cam pam v2 it asked to update and the light froze solid red. I already tried the factory reset and I couldn’t do it? Do you have any solution? ---
