Tuya Ceiling Light pairing issue: flashes once, then switches to slow blinking

Hi everyone, I’m having some trouble putting my Tuya ceiling light into pairing mode and I'm starting to wonder if the unit is defective.

When I perform the standard "3 times ON-OFF" reset sequence, here is exactly what happens:

  1. The light flashes just once immediately after the sequence.
  2. After that, it stays on but starts blinking every 60 seconds.

It doesn't seem to enter the "rapid blinking" (EZ Mode) no matter what I do. I’ve tried changing the timing of the switches, but I always get the same result. The app fails to find it during the auto-scan. I also tried 5 times, 10 times... I managed to reset it in the past, but now it seems impossible.

Has anyone encountered this specific behavior before? Is the single flash followed by slow blinking a sign of a hardware failure, or is there a different reset trick I should know?

Thanks in advance for the help!
