Zwave Yale Lock Issues

Did you by chance put the batteries in and then put the Z-Wave module in?

I'm not saying the module's damaged, but mine didn't work right because I followed step 6 in the manual that said install the batteries, then in step 7 they say don't put the batteries in, install the module, then put the batteries in.

You don't have a secure pairing. You can keep excluding and including until it works, but I don't think that you should have to try anything like that. I have joined and excluded my lock multiple times on two different HE hubs and I have not had any problem doing this. Both hubs were and are 10 feet away.

Also see you followed a different order. So do it in this order.

  1. Exclude the lock (what you have now isn't going to work anyway)
  2. Removed the batteries
  3. Removed the Z-Wave module
  4. Replace the batteries (leave the module out for now)
  5. Factory reset the lock.
  6. Remove the batteries again.
  7. Put in the Z-Wave module
  8. Replace the batteries.
  9. Set your master code.
  10. Put the hub in discovery
  11. Try to join the lock again
