Problems with adding a deleted sensor again

Hello everyone

I have deleted an Aqara temperature sensor and am now I having trouble to adding this sensor again.

I deleted the sensor as follows:

According to the description (long press the reset button) I have switched the Aqara sensor in the paring mode. But HA did not find the sensor.

Do I have to delete something somewhere in HA? Or does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks and best regards

I am going through the same issue with two sensors for two days now.

I just retry the process (long hold button until light flashes and add to HA) over and over. One finally was found last night.

The other is still illusive.

Many thanks
