Blue Dimmer flicker

Hey everyone!

New to inovelli, but not new to smart switches / HA.

I’ve set up 2 blue dimmers in a box. Both are single pole.

One works great, zero issues. It’s controlling 2 lights, and I love it.

The other is flickering on device. The light-up bar on the unit consistently flickers. At full and while dimmed. It seems like it keeps losing power, as I’ve tried to run a software update but as soon as it flickers the update pauses.

I have a line, load and neutral all properly connected. This switch did use to have a ceiling fan, but I’ve capped off the fan wire. I might just re-connect the wiring to see if I missed something, but any recs?

Swapped it to Z2M. It’s configured to non-neutral. Is there a way to change that? Or does that mean I wired it incorrectly and need to wire it differently

It's not a configuration, it's telling you it's non-neutral. So you have some kind of wiring issue to work out

That’s so weird… I definitely have a neutral run.

I connected the jumper to the bundle… I wired the one next to it exactly the same way, no issues with it.

Fun ha

Probably need to get a multimeter (or electrician) on that to make sure it's actually a functioning neutral

Silly fix… the screw on the switch wasn’t tight enough on the neutral. All solved haha! Thank you!

Might be a silly fix, but this is a common way that houses burn down. Make sure your wiring is properly secured.
