Yes. The UV light symbol on top will flash and it will beep, but I changed my UV lamp and it continued beeping and flashing

The blue light does flash when the UV bulb needs to be replaced.

UV light light itself does not flash, an icon appears in LCD screen with the UV logo, this icon flashes until you reset the UV light by pressing down the UV button and holding for 3 seconds.

Tried several times, no luck, and gave up after almost throwing the unit through the window.

After about an hour decided to mess with it again. This time, held button down for a couple of seconds and let it blink. Then, with light blinking, held reset button down for 5 seconds. Voila! Success! Only has to be done with light blinking after bulb change. They don't mention this anywhere. I hope this works for everyone! see less

So I replaced the up light and now it won’t turn on at all?

The "new" style filters (yellow or purple) don't seem to trip the arm on the lower safety switch reliably (the lower switch detects the filter, the upper switch detects the cover being latched). A simple adjustment should resolve this - their customer support can help with this if you can't figure it out.

Why is UV light blinking on GermGuardian?

The UVC/ blue light is blinking because it is a timer that needs reset. Once the filter has been replaced with a new Guardian Technologies filter you must manually reset the timer.

When should I change my Germ Guardian bulb?
