Troubleshooting

Having trouble with your smart plug, we've got you covered.

I have updated the firmware on my Tasmota plug and now it appears dead / no lights and the button doesn't work​

Follow these steps to get back on track:

  • Plug in the plug and wait for a wifi network to appear (usually this will start with tasmota- )
  • Connect to the tasmota network and re-enter your wifi details
  • Re-apply the configuration either using this template
{"NAME":"Smart Hut PM","GPIO":[0,0,0,2656,224,2624,320,2720,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,32,1],"FLAG":0,"BASE":1}
  • or via the UI

UI config

tip

Only install firmware that is known to be compatible with the Smart Hut plug. Flashing the wrong firmware can erase configuration or make the sealed plug unusable.

I have reset the configuration on my Tasmota plug and now some or all functionality is missing or doesn't work​

Follow the steps above

I changed Wi-Fi and my Tasmota plug will not reconnect​

On newer Smart Hut Tasmota firmware, press the physical button three times to enter Wi-Fi configuration mode. Connect to the temporary Tasmota Wi-Fi network, then open http://192.168.4.1 and enter the new Wi-Fi details.

The temporary network may be named smarthutpm-XXXXXX, smarthutplug_XXXXXX-####, or tasmota_XXXXXX-#### depending on firmware version.

I cannot find module, template, backup, or restore configuration​

Newer Smart Hut Tasmota firmware hides some risky stock Tasmota buttons from the normal configuration page to prevent accidental misconfiguration. The plug template is built into the firmware, so normal users should not need to change module or template settings.

Advanced users can still use the Tasmota console where appropriate, but changing hardware configuration can break relay, LED, button, or power monitoring behaviour.

Firmware upgrade asks me to confirm the risk​

This is expected on newer Smart Hut Tasmota firmware. The firmware upgrade page requires explicit confirmation before OTA or file upload upgrades can continue.

Only continue if you are intentionally installing compatible firmware for this plug.
