Bad configuration for Kwikset Smartcode 916 Zwave smart deadbolt

Good day HA Gurus!

Hopefully someone can help. This is a great lock and I would prefer not to replace it. The lock pairs successfully with my Zooz 800 series Zwave stick and the make and model are shown in the device configuration but there are no standard lock parameters associated with the device in HA:



There is a device definition for this lock in the Zwave device database but I’m not sure how to incorporate it into my system or even if it is appropriate to do so.
I’m an HA newbie and this is my first post so please pardon any incorrect terminology or lack of information. Looking forward to any hints you can provide. Thanks in advance!

I installed one of these and had the same result. I re-interviewed the node and that fixed it.

Thanks. I tried that a few times. Unfortunately it didn’t work. I also tried using a long USB cable to place the stick within inches of the lock when pairing and reinterviewing. No luck.

expand the z-wave info section and verify the lock was included with security. This is the most common issue with locks. It should say s0 legacy or S2 Access in the highest security field. If it says none you will have to exclude the lock and readd it.

That’s exactly it but I’ve tried repeatedly to repair and reinterview the device to no avail. Suggestions?

You have to exclude the device and re include it in order for the security to update. I would also try bringing it closer to the controller during inclusion.

Unfortunately this did not work for me.

Are your batteries low?

Nope. Brand new batteries.
