Anyone Know How to Hard Reset Moultrie M80XT? Empty Anyone Know How to Hard Reset Moultrie M80XT?

I am having an issue with my moultrie not taking pictures. Angry head bashing Angry head bashing Angry head bashing I know there is a ton of action in the area.

I have read that a hard reset sometimes takes care of this type of issue with these cameras.

Does anyone know how to hard reset the camera?

I appreciate any help you can give.... This is a last resort before I contact Cust Service....

Take out the batteries, flip the switch to the aim light position, let set for 10 mins to make sure all power is drained, look inside the cam where the batt tray goes in and you'll find the reset button, hold it down a few seconds and then fire your cam back up to see if it helped.

I had that problem a few times with my M100. It would not take pictures. I did the hard reset and it cured the problem. Sometimes I had to reset it twice.
Let us know the outcome.

I have two of the m80 cams still.both have been replaced and both are having issues again,also I have tried many hard re-sets on mine,you may have a battery tray issue where the contacts meet or you should try a (new) sd card..mine likes 4gb sandisk and format it in the cam not in your computer and also install new batterys along with it. all have been issues with my m80's cams in the past.

You might also check your new batterys with a volt meter just to see if you dont have a Bad New battery.

Thanks everyone.... I have brand new 8 Energizer Lithium in it, I have 2 sd cards that are only formatted in the camera. I have been having a slight issue with it for a while, Angry head bashing it wouldn't take more than a few pictures with it in trail cam mode. If I put it in Hybrid mode, it would take a ton of pics. I would get plot video during the day for two hours in the am pm... now it is doing this.....

I just got home from work, I will try to hard reset it tomorrow before work if I have time.
