Factory Resting the Echo Dot is fairly simple all you need to do is hold down the Mute and Minus Button for 30 seconds.

like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-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....
Thanks for the comment!
Thx haven't used since 2018 for some reason and got your video helpful to follow same steps
Great to hear! Thanks for your comment!
Awesome, thanks. Bought the first generation for my wife a few years back. She used it for a week then put it away because she was afraid of being spied on LOL. I don't care, I'm dusting this thing off and giving it a try with my Ring home alarm system. Wish me luck...
You got it! Best of luck!!!
Thank you soooooo much. I’ve had a swirling blue notification since first set up. It was beyond annoying!
Happy to help Tammy!
If your Echo Dot 2 is simply not responding, the first thing to try is to unplug it and leave it unplugged for longer than 30 seconds. After 45 seconds or so, plug it back in and it will perform a soft reset on itself. I have two Dot 2’s, and simply unplugging it for 30+ seconds has fixed any problem I’ve ever had. If that doesn’t work, the next step is the hard reset as described here.
Hey Larry! Thank you for sharing on here!
Holy shit!!!! After days of trying this finally!!!! I Had to try twice and press the buttons harder.
Thanks for the comment!!
Perfect. Too the point and all. Great Work!
Glad it helped!

My echo keeps running blue circles around and around then stays blue for a short period. Nothing changes this and then it starts over and does the same thing, no resets work. About to do final reset with a hammer
I might try powering it off for 1 minute and seeing if that helps
@@TheSmartHomeHelper yeah did that… might take it to a different house and see if that does anything
Hi yes I have a question, Whenever I want to set up my echo dot, when I have to connect to amazon-xxx, my phone like resets. Why is that ?
Sorry, I'm not sure the thing I would suggest is clearing your cache or resetting your phone.
I have one is the 2 generation but is on blue light and have only blue no pass that
Just unplug the power adapter from the device or the outlet and then plug it back in. To reset your device to its factory settings: Press and hold the Microphone off and Volume down buttons. Wait until the light ring turns orange (about 20 seconds).
There’s around 10.000 videos about how to press two buttons. Mine has been spinning blue/white for days.. the buttons and voice are non responsive.. 3rd gen so no reset pin hole. I’m all out of ideas. The 50.000 videos about how to unplug it and plug it back in did not help either.
Hey Foo! It sounds like it might be broken. I might get a new one if that is an option. The notes you have above would be my suggestion.
Bummer it didn’t work for me. It stays at blue, never changes and never says anything
I might try powering off than on that might work?
same for me find a fix?
Same here
@@aovax6719 did you ever fix it pls lmk
my echo just has a blue light on, holding down the start button does not do change anything, holding the - button and mute button does nothing as well, so frustrated, in the app says "offline"
Sometimes power on and off can help
The volume isn't working any suggestions
You could have a blue speaker attached I know that was pretty common with these dots.
@@TheSmartHomeHelper yes I am using through Bluetooth but two different sources. Thanks for the info
My dot just keeps blinking on blue then the light spins round once , goes tottaly out then blinks again and spins ,, repeat? Any ideas bud
I would try to power off then back on and I might check too to see if Alexa can hear you at all.
Mine's audio had stopped working even though if I called it, the lights are turning on yet still I can't hear it, any suggestions what to do?
I would try a reset for sure and then maybe powering off for a while then back on.
I know this dumb, but I would just check the volume too. If none of the above for I think you might need to get a new one.
the white light is staying on all the time how do I get it to stop
I've had that happen to sometimes unplugging and start process over.
Went back to a yellow spinning light
I would try a power off then back on
Mine just keeps going blue is it dead?
I've had to power off a few times on mine before getting it to work
I set it up like you said now what
The next step would be to get Alexa app and go through set up process
20 secs orange laight
I would try unplugging then attempting again.
Mine turns blue and spins green. Turns off. Then does it all over again. Does not acknowledge the reset
I might try powering off then back on to see if that helps!
@@TheSmartHomeHelper I've tried that a couple of times. I just gave up and gave it to the kids to play with
My echo was not connected
Understood well let me know if I can help!
