Issue with FGS-222


jmenoud

Question

I was using a Fibaro relay switch without any problem for 3 years now.

 

Since one month, I have an issue with it. One of the relay switch do not work any more. If I change the state (physically or with homecenter) the status is changed (on -> off, off -> on), but the physical state is not changed any more (my light stay on). I made some tests and found a difference with it. If I change the state of an other switch, I can hear a little "click" when the state is physically changed and this is not the case with the defected one.

 

Do I have a chance to fix the problem with an exclusion/inclusion or or is my Fibaro switch completely dead? (=> I have to change it)

Don't throw it in the bin yet. If it stays stuck on, the relay contacts may have welded. Gently (or if that does not work... "firmly") tap the module with the back of a screwdriver, from different angles, this might free up the contacts. Worked for me and several other users. If that worked, you may have "nasty'" load on that relay and need to do something about that or the problem will return.

 

Why this happens and possible solution see:

  • I tried to extract the fibaro relay switch and shook it. 

     

    It worked for me and now it is working fine again. Thanks for the tip!

    Hi All!

     

    I have just added Fibaro FGS22 double switch to my Home Center 2.

     

    In the device details I could see 5 items.

    1st item is the Master

    2nd item is a switch but I don't know what I could use for (it could be switch on and off), because it is a hidden device

    3rd item is a kind of remote controller (as HC2 said)

    4th item is the first "button" of the switch

    5th item is is the second button of the switch

     

    What could 3rd and 4th items be used for?

     

    Thank you for the answers!
