Light is not working | AcuRite Customer Community

My brightness light will no work. I just set everything up and things were fine. Then the light went to dim. I have tried all the fixes, holding the reset button for 10 seconds (did that 4 times at least), changed the batteries even though I have it plugged in to the power outlet. I changed power outlets, All systems are working and reading (except rain fall which I lost data on). The screen lights up when I complete the reset and put all the data back in. So that's not it. Any ideas???

Hello Joan,
What is the model of the display? The following instructions should help resolve any issues you are having with your display.

To do a pinhole reset: (THIS WILL CLEAR ALL OF YOUR HISTORY AND YOUR SETTINGS)

Please verify that you are using a name brand (Rayovac or Energizer) standard alkaline batteries in the display unit. We do not recommend using anything that is heavy duty, rechargeable, store brand or Lithium inside of the display.

- Remove all power, AC adapter and batteries from the display unit.
- Press and hold down the pin hole reset button, located in the battery compartment, for 20 seconds.
- Plug back into AC power and insert recommended batteries.
- Press and hold down the pin hole reset button for an additional 20 seconds.
- Verify that the unit has powered on and once connection has been made, attempt to set time and date.
