I bought an Airocide unit 2 days ago (January 1, 2015) my unit starts blinking lights and won't work anymore. I think it's defective?

This is a common issue with this model. Count the number of times it blinks. It is most likely that one of the internal boards need to be replaced. At least this was the case for the one I bought.

Have you turned it off and let it for 20 minutes and turned it back on to reset it? If that doesn't work, please check your owners manual and call them . You may have a defective unit.

If you've recently bought it, send it back for a refund (the whole unit). Otherwise you may have to contact Amazon. It's pretty common that this unit fails in some way. I had two arrive "dead on arrival" before finally getting one that worked.

Unfortunately the same thing happened to mine. I could get it to come on from time to time if I let it reset itself but it always would cut itself back off and get the same flashing light. Do some google research on the issue and there are a few things out there that people said to try but nothing worked for me. hate to be the bearer of bad news but it may be time to get a new one if you are out of warranty. I couldn't find any repair solutions that were cheaper than buying a new unit.

My first one had the same problem as yours. Red light on all the time, and froze! I returned it and bought another one hoping it was a defective piece.... My second one start to show signs of defective also! and this one I can't return b/c past return period. DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT is my recommendation.

This might be a repeat answer. If you have pluged the unit into another outlet and the light still flashes I think you should return it.

There should be a little red light that turns on and it flashes until it goes solid that means its ready. If the light doesn't turn on and it doesn't get hot then it doesn't work. I would send it back for a new one. There should be a warrenty.

It would help me if I knew that your unit had once worked correctly, but without this info I would suggest to First, make sure the unit is in sync with the ceiling fan (to do this, if able, turn light off then turn light on, press square button in center of fan control and hold button down until light flashes on and off twice then attempt to turn light on/off as normal). Should this not work or wall unit completely not functioning , problem could be in one of two places; (1) receiver unit in the fan itself could need to be replaced or (2) wall unit could need to be replaced. I ended up replacing both of mine since I first replaced the receiver unit and when that failed to fix the problem I replaced the wall unit, which did fix the problem. I hope this will help you. Another option is to purchase a hand held remote, sync it with the light as previously instructed, and if this works you will know the problem is in your wall unit and not in your receiver.

We noticed the the blinking occurred when the A/C was on. Suspected that it had to do with the power draw somehow. Car was totaled shortly after we discovered the connection so we never got a chance to troubleshoot more on it.

We have the same issue, but did nothing to cause it and it stopped working. It was cool for about a day! Expensive to die so quickly. (This was for my husband, and he was careful with it.)

I would check batteries to make sure strong enough if they are check make sure have a good ground to grounding rod . Can you here the device running it should be pulsing when lights are blinking

I think you are one of the unfortunate ones with a defective unit. If i were you i would look into the warranty for the unit.

I have looked at the Use and Care Instructions to see if there was anything about the red light blinking and found nothing. I would suggest that you call the Germ Guard company and let them help you. 1-866-603-5900. Sorry I couldn't help you.

That is odd. Did you let it sit for a while? I remember blinking lights for sometime before the constant green light came on.I'd contact Amazon or the manufacturer to see if you can exchange it. Personally, I love mine and even gave one to my best friend for her birthday.

Have you considered that it may be just broken ? It should light up right when you plug it in. Play with the sensitivity ... If still nothing them obviously it's broken.

I would unplug it and replug it in, and go through each step again. When I first started using it, I would forget and set the temperature first instead of last. Look for the blinking dot next to the temperature.
