Where Is the Reset Button on My Chromecast Ultra?

The Chromecast Ultra reset button is located right next to the indicator light, near the hard-wired HDMI cable. If you hold the Chromecast Ultra in your left hand and the HDMI cable in your right hand, with the shiny side of the device pointing away from you, you’ll find the reset button located directly to the left of the hard-wired HDMI cable. It’s set into the bottom half of the Chromecast Ultra, the side with the matte finish, directly below the seam where the matte and shiny portions of the device meet.

The button is a little difficult to push, but you will feel a click when it has been pushed in far enough, and the light should immediately begin to flash orange. It doesn’t take a lot of pressure, but the button is flush with the Chromecast case, so it can be tough to depress using your finger. If you have difficulty pushing the button with your finger, you may find it easier to depress with your fingernail or a small implement like a tweezer or screwdriver.
