Woke up this morning and the water level was low because the sensor on my smart micro ato seemed to stop detecting the water level. Blue light is still shining from it, but it doesn't do its usual flashing when the water level drops below its sensor. Sensor is prob about 4 years old. Any ideas? Sensor is pretty clean as well.

Check your manual if there's a way to factory hard reset it. If it's clean and no visible signs of issues, then this might just do the trick.

If not- and given you're out of warranty it could sound like you need to invest in a new one.

Happened to me 3 times. I no longer trust this particular unit

Mine is about the same age, but I've not seen this issue with mine at all. Have you tried unplugging the power and then plugging it back in? See if it'll reset. I just upgraded to their AWC +ATO and it's working great so far.
