Resetting the Moultrie A-5 Game Camera

How do I perform a hard reset on the Moultrie A-5 game camera? My night time pictures are black and I'm told this may resolve the issue.

HARD RESET TAKE OUT BATTERIES SD CARD PUSH THE ON OFF BUTTON FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS LEFT EVERYTHING OUT FOR 2-5 MINUTES. THEN PUT THE BATTERY BACK IN TURN THE CAMERA ON IT SHOULD SAY NO CARD. THEN TURN IT OFF THEN PUT THE SD CARD BACK AND TRY IT IN THE DARK AREA TO SEE IF THE FLASH WILL GO OFF. IF THAT DOESN'T WORK WILL NEED TO SEND IT IN FOR REPAIRS.

My pictures at night are nothing but a black picture

HARD RESET TAKE OUT BATTERIES AND SD CARD, TURN IT TO THE ON POSITION FOR ABOUT 2-3 MINUTES WITH NOTHING IN IT. AFTER 2-3 MIN PUT BATTERIES BACK IN WHILE WITH THE ON POSITION IT SHOULD SAY NO CARD. ONCE IT SAYS THAT TURN OFF THE CAMERA PUT THE SD CARD BACK IN TURN THE CAMERA BACK ON AND TEST IN THE DARK. IF THAT DOESN'T WORK SEND IT IN FOR REPAIRS TO MOULTRIE.

Day pictures are now white and will take1good night pict then 5-8 are black. Camra is almost a year old. Was taking great Picts.

Do you have the camera set east or west? If you do you need to move to North or South if still not working do a hard reset turn off camera take out battery's and sd card push the button on/off button for about 5 seconds. Then put battery's back in leave the sd card out turn the camera on it should say no card. Once it says that turn camera off then put sandisk sdhc nothing higher than a class 4 speed of the card not the size. Then test camera again if still having the issue call Moultire 8006533334 option 1 and 1 for a live person.

Moultrie game camera flash will not work. All bulbs light up red but every night picture is so dark

Try doing a hard reset, Turn camera off remove battery's and sd card. With everything out. Push on/off for about 5 sec. Put good battery's in ig. If you using cheap battery's make sure your are using Duracell or Engerzier battery's not rechargeable. Also make sure not using a micro sd card and nothing higher than a class 4 which is the speed of the card not the size. If still need help call with equipment to troubleshoot to Moultire 800653334 option 1 and 1 for a live person.

Moultrie D50 game trail camera won't take pictures in dark

Does the flash work? Could be flash circuit or day/night sensor.If you have another D40/D50 camera that flash works but has other problems,swap out the sensors.If not the sensor but the flash circuit then most likely one of the large charge capacitors which has to be soldered in.I use a digital multimeter with I/O capacitor test function..these caps should be about 250mfd.
