How Do I Reset My Vape Mod?

If your vape mod isn’t working like it used to, giving it a reset might be the easiest fix. Whether your screen is glitching, settings got messed up, or it just won’t fire — resetting your device can help bring it back to factory-fresh condition. At K Town Vape in Kennesaw, we walk customers through this all the time. Here’s how to do it the right way.

Why Reset a Vape Mod?

Resetting a vape mod can help fix:

• Unresponsive screens

• Firing button errors

• Incorrect resistance readings

• Glitches after firmware updates

• Accidental setting changes

Most vape mods today come with a built-in way to factory reset or manually reset your settings.

Step-by-Step: How to Reset Your Vape Mod

Resetting depends on your specific model, but here are some general approaches that work on most devices:

1. Five-Click Power Cycle

Try the classic: click the fire button 5 times quickly to turn off the device. Then, turn it back on. This is often enough to fix temporary glitches.

2. Check the Menu for a Reset Option

Many box mods have a menu system you can scroll through using the fire button or side buttons.

• Look for something labeled “Settings,” “Advanced,” or “System.”

• Then search for “Factory Reset” or “Default Settings.”

• Select it and confirm. The device will reboot with default settings.

3. Remove the Batteries or Disconnect Power

For mods with external batteries:

• Remove the batteries and leave them out for a few minutes.

• This can clear minor software issues.

• Reinsert the batteries and power the device back on.

For built-in battery mods:

• Fully power off the device.

• Plug it into a charger and hold the power button.

• Some devices will reset during a power cycle when charging begins.

4. Firmware Reset (Advanced)

If your vape mod has upgradable firmware, you might be able to reset it using the manufacturer’s software.

• Visit the brand’s official website

• Download their firmware tool

• Follow the reset instructions they provide

Note: This is only recommended if you’re comfortable using a computer to update your device.

Important Tips:

• Don’t reset your vape while it's firing or plugged in.

• Always remove your tank to prevent leaking or accidental firing during the process.

• Resetting will often erase wattage/power settings, so you’ll need to re-adjust your preferences afterward.
