# Reconnect - v2 WiFi Level Sensor

{% hint style="success" %}
First, check that your sensor is not already connected! Press the **RESET button once** (short press) and watch the **status LED**. If you see a **solid BLUE (cyan)** colour for **5-10 seconds**, the unit is already **connected** to the network
{% endhint %}

### Reconnect a sensor using BlueConnect

* In the TankMate app, go to **Settings** > **Sensor / Tank Settings** > **Edit Network Settings**
* Put the sensor into BlueConnect mode: on the side of the sender unit - hold the **RESET** button for **6-8 seconds** then release.
* The status LED will **blink slowly** - **dark blue** - when in BlueConnect mode <img src="https://3294911313-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-Mjq6Eo2I_bWsm6tRo8e%2Fuploads%2FSTb0gvEHftsgLQJMzYWK%2Fblueconnect.gif?alt=media&#x26;token=e7107f77-4566-409a-a5e8-10832456893e" alt="" data-size="line">
* The unit will go to sleep to conserve power after 3 mins. Click RESET again to wake it up.
* Follow the prompts in the app. Further details on the [BlueConnect process can be found here](https://tankmate.gitbook.io/tankmate/wi-fi-connectivity/using-bluconnect).

{% hint style="warning" %}
**NOTE:** as of November 2023, all v2 sensors **must** be running **firmware version 21 or above**. Sensors running an older firmware version will not be able to send data to the TankMate server - and will need to be manually updated. Contact us for details.

The firmware version no. can be seen on the (expanded) home screen of the app.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**NOTE:** WiFi passwords that include the **$ symbol** are not currently supported by some older TankMate sensors. We recommend modifying the password, or setting up a guest network with a different password.
