Fingerprint Not Working on AUSLOCK (Fix Recognition Issues)

Sabit Esati |

If fingerprint unlock isn’t working, start with the 3 most common causes: sensor, finger, battery.

Step-by-step fixes

  1. Clean the sensor: Use a microfiber cloth (no harsh chemicals).
  2. Re-register fingerprints: Add the same finger 2–3 times from slightly different angles.
  3. Try another finger: Some fingers scan better than others.
  4. Replace batteries: Weak batteries can reduce sensor reliability.
  5. Check permissions: Ensure the fingerprint is assigned to the correct user access level.

Pro tips for better fingerprint success

  • Use the “pad” of your finger, not the tip.
  • Press consistently (not too light, not too hard).
  • If hands are wet/dry, wipe and try again.

Still stuck? Remove and re-add the fingerprint in the AUSLOCK App, then test again.
