Did your Homey recently update to the latest firmware (8.0.3)? There seem to be a lot of issues with this firmware, where devices become unresponsive. HomeyKit hasn’t changed for a while now. ---

Yes I did. It’s automatic, maybe I should change that setting. I was just wondering if the was any logging I could do that might track the problem down.

I’ve never done that so will have to do some research. In the meantime a bit of extra info (screenshots attached). HomeKit seems to think the bedroom lamp is still included. If you delete and then try to add again you get this error message. Still it does return to the state as per the first photo - Added. ![image0.png](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/c/ec20c6ffa7817a343c521d30b80007385fe03c81.jpeg) ![image1.png](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/e/3ef0d7f3ef40b8bb5cccc57499e34b2e7ce5ca0a.png) Peter > ![](https://sea1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/user_avatar/community.homey.app/robertklep/45/48_2.png "robertklep") | [robertklep](https://community.homey.app/u/robertklep) > July 25 | > > - | - | > ![](https://sea1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/user_avatar/community.homey.app/peter_bittner/40/16698_2.png)Peter\_Bittner: > > I was just wondering if the was any logging I could do that might track the problem down.
