Introduction
This is a step-by-step guide that will walk through the process of replacing the camera sensor on the Ring Doorbell 3. The camera sensor is a component that detects motion in the surroundings, triggering motion alerts and video recordings. Problems with the camera picking up motion could be the result of a camera sensor problem. More information for solutions to these issues can be found on the Ring Doorbell Troubleshooting Page. Since the device needs to be taken apart to access the parts, some users may not know how to dismantle it, which is where this guide can come in handy.
