The lights could be going off due to overheating. What are your temps? Does just the inside grow light LED go out? Do you see the top colored LED on? Do you hear the air pump/stone?

Have you tried a power-cycle? What are the temperatures in the room like - is the light getting really hot? There is an auto shut-off to protect if the light is overheating.

Oh the green led it keeps flashing normal it’s not disconnect from wifi cause I can still open the door with my phone
Should I just do a power cycle as @vegetato suggested see if it fixes the problem this is the first time i seen this happen but from the looks of it it seems like it’s been doing it the whole day just checked the feed in the grobo it’s has been doing it all day today

If you haven’t yet, it’d be a good idea to open a support ticket about this too.
I don’t think it would hurt to try unplugging and plugging it back in at this point to see if that fixes it.

Just did the power cycle waiting to see if it turns back off keep you updated.I’ll put in a ticket after, just in case it fixes the issue.

One other thing I’d check is the exhaust temps. If you could put one of your sensors as close to the top/rear of the unit where it exhausts that’d also be a good data point to have (to confirm it’s near the 75° ambient).
I had this happen about a year ago to one of my units and the light had to be replaced. Hopefully that’s not the case here but if it’s triggering overheat without actually overheating something is wrong.

Top rear exhaust point we are at 84 degrees and climbing from the looks of it stopped at 86 degrees should I worry @vegetato
Is your top fan running? The one behind the carbon filter door?

The LED light on the front of your Grobo shows the different states that your Grobo One is in. Below you can see what each colour and pattern means for your Grobo:
Pulsing Pink: Grobo One is booting up, your unit will be ready to start growing soon!
Solid Green: Grobo One is ready to connect to the internet. Follow instructions on how to connect to WiFi.
Pulsing Light Blue: Grobo One is connected to the internet and running as it should be!
Fast Blinking Light Blue: Grobo One has lost connection to the internet. It should reconnect on it’s own in a few minutes. If not, unplug and plug the unit back in to get connected again!
Pulsing Orange: Grobo One is growing your plant but it’s lost the internet connection. You’ll only be able to use the Grobo app when your Grobo One reconnects to WiFi.
Otherwise these all look pretty good.
Pulsing Blue: Grobo One is in a special mode Ex. Filling, draining, door unlocked
Solid Red: Grobo One has a critical error - if this occurs for longer than a few minutes, try resetting your Grobo .
If that does not work, please contact our support team: support@grobo.io.
Blinking Purple: Grobo One is flashing new firmware. Firmware is like the brain of your Grobo. We will periodically push updates to your Grobo to better your growing experience, so you don’t need to worry about this one!

Try resetting the time schedule. Don’t change anything but save your changes. See if that turns it on. Worked for me after I power cycled!

Did you change the air filter between grows?
If it’s clogged that will reduce the flow through the top which might be causing it to overheat. If smell isn’t a concern just run with it off for maximum airflow (that’s what I do).
