Really good responses and advice here, team! Thank you. I’ll go after it.

Just an update… after factory resetting the mechanical room switch it quit misbehaving. But then my bedroom fan started shutting off at 3am ish again. I’ve disabled the Query All routine from happening at 3am and I’ve had zero bad behavior since.

Interested. Send me the list, I’ll make you an offer for all of it

I saw this! Pretty amazing! I thought it was over, but I'm thrilled to see product again. I'm gonna hoard!

I'm not sure how to tell how old it is. It's a couple years old going by my purchase. It just started doing this recently though and to the best of my knowledge, I hadn't made any changes to it. I did a full Insteon factory reset. I thought the same as you, any weird links would get cleared. I may have even bought this switch used, so I might not be 100% sure of how it's been programmed. I would have thought I'd have done a full reset on a used switch, but I'm also lazy. If it worked, I might not have After the full reset, no weirdness last night! I have nothing scheduled to turn on at 3am, but I'm not sure what that query all actually does. It seems convenient that this switch was coming on within a minute of 3am routinely. So maybe it just had some garbage in it that the Query All was making fire off. We'll see, I guess! I appreciate the minds to bounce things off of here. Thanks guys!

Manually running the Query all doesn’t do anything weird. But for the past three nights, at about 3:01, the furnace room light comes on. It’s in the log. Looks like a normal entry on the log, I just can’t tell what it telling it to turn on. I reset the Insteon Switch and added it back today. We’ll see what happens tonight. lucky for me, I’m getting old, so I get up at 2 and 3 and 4 …

Great info guys! Thanks! I will try it and report back.

Ok, this is going to sound goofy. Let me explain the situation and I’m hoping one of you experts has an idea what’s going on. i have a house full of Insteon stuff. Every light switch. Some outlets. Fan controllers. Switch pads. It all goes to a serial PLM and to an ISY994i. It all works GREAT! I’ve had it running for a couple years. It talk to Home Assistant and Home Assistant ultimately delivers it to HomeKit where I control things. One weird thing I’ve always noticed is one switch in my master bedroom has a buzz in it whenever a switch or anything on the Insteon network gets used. I assume there’s something mismanufactured in this switch that’s letting me hear the communications. It’s super quiet, but I can hear it. In the middle of the night it has a fit. I assume that’s some timed process that checks and adjusts the state of all devices. It lasts a minute or so, usually doesn’t wake me up, but it’s regular. I’ve always ignored it. Recently, because I’m aging, i get up a bunch in the middle of the night. Sometimes my master bedroom fan is off. As I start digging through logs, it gets shut off sometimes at 3am. Then recently, the living room fan did the same thing. Then recently I had a light in the mechanical room turn itself on… at 3am. Looking through logs, it’s always 3am. Sometimes something gets turned on, sometimes off. i have no programs configured to do anything like that. Anyone have any guesses as to what might be going on? Anyone know what system is doing that 3am check/reset of the Insteon stuff? I assume it might be the ISY but I don’t see that in the configuration. I’m thinking maybe the ISY is going through and forcing all Insteon devices to the state it thinks they should be and that in some circumstances it’s wrong about a fan, or a light. With HomeKit going through Home Assistant to get to the ISY, i could image a state could get miscommunicated here or there. Just trying to track it down.
