The system needs a repeater or router to 

reach the lock.

Adding repeaters to your system may help communication between your 
lock and the controller, especially if they are far away from each other.

The network configuration changed.

If any repeaters or routers in the system were moved since adding the 
lock to the system, perform the “rediscover” process in your system’s 
user interface.

The lock is in sleep mode.

If the lock has been unable to communicate with the system after 
multiple attempts, it will go into sleep mode. Lock and unlock the door 

with a key so that the lock status transmits to the system. If it still does 
not communicate, remove (exclude/unpair) the lock from your system. 
Then, pair (add/include) the lock with your system again. If the problem 
persists, add a repeater or router between the controller and lock if none 
presently exist in the system.

The light module or switch is not beaming 

capable.

Z-Wave locks: Ensure the light module or switch located between the 
controller and lock is beaming capable.

ZigBee locks: Ensure the router is reachable by both controller and lock.

I can see the lock in my controller, but I can’t control it from the controller.

1.   

Reboot the lock:

a.  Remove the battery pack from the lock.
b.  Press the "Program" button for 5 seconds and then the "A" 

button for 5 seconds.

c.  If TS (touchscreen controller) shows low battery trouble for 

the lock subjected to the firmware update then install new 
batteries in pack.

d.  Replace the battery pack into the lock.
e.  If lock still fails to OTA update firmware, proceed to Step 2.

2.   

Delete, default, and pair lock again:

a.  Delete the lock from TS (touchscreen controller).
b.  Perform a factory reset:

i. 

Remove the battery pack from the lock.

ii. 

Press the "Program" button for 5 seconds and then 
the "A" button for 5 seconds.

iii.  Press and hold the "Program" button while 

reinserting the battery pack. Keep holding the button 
for 30 seconds until the lock beeps and the status 
LED flashes red.

iv.  Press the "Program" button momentarily.
v. 

After several seconds, the lock will flash the status 
LED red and green several times and beeps twice 
(if audio is enabled) to indicate factory reset is 
complete.

c.  For model 910 or 914, perform handing on the lock. For 

model 916, it will automatically perform handing.

d.  Pair the lock with TS again.
e.  If lock still fails to OTA update firmware, proceed to Step 3.

3.   

If lock still fails to OTA update firmware after going through steps    

        1 and 2, it is recommended that your MSO/service provider contact  
        Kwikset/Weiser for advanced replacement of the lock. 

C

The lock fails to update or pair with a service provider's ZigBee smart 

home system.

Lock fails to OTA (Over the Air) update firmware.
