Because LED strip lights these days are controlled via either remote control or wifi connectivity, there are times when the LED strips won’t exactly work the way you want them to, most likely because of connectivity or settings issues. 

The easiest way to fix this issue would be to simply do a factory reset of the lights via the remote controller. If you don’t know how to do that, read on to know the steps on how to reset LED strip lights.

What Are LED Strips and Their Uses? 

Before we go to the steps on how to reset LED strip wifi lights, it’s first important to briefly go through how LED strips work and how they’re used. First of all, LED strips are literally strips that contain small lights emitting at the same time to form a string of lights. They are often used for decorative purposes on houses, rooms, and even interior (or even the exterior) of cars. 

LED strip lights are usually controlled by a remote control device, which allows you to reset the overall settings and wifi connectivity of the appliance. This will reset all the settings in one shot, allowing you to start using it from scratch. 

Below, you’ll find the steps you need to take in order to reset the settings. 

How to Reset LED Strips

Before you reset your LED strips, you need to know how to reset led strip via the remote control. This means you need to familiarize yourself with how the remote control works. While the LED strip remotes are different per brand, they all have pretty much the same main buttons that you’ll need in order to make a factory reset. So, the only thing that you’ll need to do is know the process of doing a factory reset. 

Here’s how to do it:

  • Plug your LED strips in and turn it on for a few seconds.
  • Turn it off then take out the power adaptor without turning off the remote control.
  • Press and hold the power button for a few seconds then connect the power supply again.
  • Continue holding the button for around five seconds then wait for the LED strips to turn on.
  • The LED strips will turn on and alternate colors between red, green, and blue and then yellow.
  • When the LED strip holds at yellow, then you can release the button.

This is the general way on how to reset RGB led strips. Of course, the process may be a bit different for some brands. For some brands, factory resets will require turning the power on and off a few times. 

These are the typical steps to do that:

  • Plug your LED strips in and turn it on for a few seconds.
  • Turn it off then take out the power adaptor without turning off the remote control.
  • Hold the power button for five seconds then turn off the power.
  • Wait for 3 seconds then turn it on for five seconds.
  • Repeat the 3 seconds off and five-second on the process for 4 times.
  • On the fourth time, wait for the LED strips to show alternate lights.
  • Once it reaches yellow, then it has already reset.

Conclusion

Those are the two most common ways on how to reset LED strip lights. Of course, the one you’ll use will really depend on which brand you’re using.

However, knowing how to reset led strip controllers at the very least will give you an idea on how it’s done. With that, you’ll already have an easier time reading the instruction manual and going through the whole process.
