Do you have a question about the SmartCode 916 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
I dropped my lock and it came apart, can you send me an exploded diagram so I can reassemble the unit correctly . Thank you.
Does not power up
The Kwikset SmartCode 916 may not power up due to the following reasons:
1. Battery Issues – Ensure that the 4-AA batteries are properly installed and have sufficient charge.
2. Incorrect Installation – Verify that the battery pack is securely connected.
3. Pairing Distance – If connecting to a home controller, the lock may need to be powered up within 3 to 5 feet of the controller for a secure connection.
4. Faulty Components – Check for any loose or damaged wiring inside the lock.
If the issue persists, reinsert the batteries or reset the lock.
