Hi @JeffD1. We have some troubleshooting tips for the Solar Charger [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360061517732-Solar-Charger-and-Solar-Panel-for-Ring-Doorbells-troubleshooting) that may help. You can also try disconnecting the Solar Charger, making sure there is no dirt or debris on it, and reconnecting it. If that doesn't do the trick, reset the Doorbell by holding down the setup button for at least 20 seconds. After that, set it back up in the Ring App with the steps under Set Up a Device. If the Solar Charger still does not show as connected during daylight hours, please give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406) for assistance with more advanced troubleshooting. If you are outside of the US, please visit [here ](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-gb/articles/213608406)to see how to contact support.

Hi. New here and need advice please. Original gen1 doorbell with connected solar charger developed a fault and RING kindly replaced both with new gen2 ones. My app is now telling me my doorbell battery is hardwired? Obviously it’s not so how do I get it to recognise the solar charger is there etc. I have refreshed the app, also uninstalled and reinstalled but still with the same result. My bell thinks it’s hardwired when it’s not!! Help appreciated please 😊

I believe that because your doorbell is connected to the solar charger that's why it's saying it's hard wired mine says the same thing and it's staying charged so I wouldn't worry about it 😃

Mine shows the same only when it gets to 100% charged. When it gets to below 98% it shows solar power.
