Can I use a different type of switch to control the window?

Troubleshooting

Check the electrical connection to the window and the power supply to the switch. Ensure the circuit breaker is on. Verify the wiring follows the manufacturer's diagram.

Ensure the rain sensor is clean and free from debris. Check if the sensor is properly connected. Test the sensor's function according to the installation manual.

Inspect the pivot mechanism for any obstructions. Ensure the window frame is not warped and that the window operates smoothly manually. Contact support if the issue persists.
