Door sensor reports incorrectly since camera installed

My back door sensor read correctly when installed.  Once the outside camera was installed, it reads closed when open about 2 inches, and open when closed.  None of the posted help addresses this

@user_279dc2  Thank you for visiting Xfinity Community Forums for help with your new sensor. Are you still having issues at this time? If so, are you seeing an error on the app? 

 

Does it appear the sensor has moved (or become loose) from its original installation?

@XfinityEva​ , no.  The sensor worked when installed.  After the camera was installed, it registers open when closed, and closed when the door is about 2 inches open, and again open when the door is opened more widely.  Removing and replacing the battery does nothing.

Thank you @user_279dc2 it may be caused by an issue with your touchscreen's location. Has the touchscreen been moved from its originally installed location? If so, return it to where it was installed. If not, can you please send us a direct message with your full name and the service address?
