    What to do if my Petsafe PIG00-14673 Pet Care Product receiver collar is beeping but my pet isn't responding?
    • D
      Danielle ParkerJul 31, 2025
      If the receiver collar is beeping but your pet isn't responding to the static correction, ensure the static correction is set to level 2 or above. Test the receiver collar with the test light while walking toward the boundary wire. If the test light flashes, adjust the fit of the receiver collar to ensure the contact points are touching your dog's skin. You may also need to trim your pet’s fur where the contact points touch the neck or switch to longer contact points. Try increasing the static correction level and repeating the training steps to reinforce the training. If the issue persists, consider purchasing a stronger receiver collar.

    How to stop Petsafe Pet Care Product receiver collar from activating inside the house?

      Tracy WattsAug 5, 2025
      To prevent the receiver collar from activating inside the house, turn the boundary width control knob counterclockwise to decrease the activation distance from the boundary wire. Ensure the boundary wire is not within 15 ft of the house, as the signal can transmit through walls. Also, confirm that the boundary wires are twisted from the boundary to the fence transmitter.

    Why does my Petsafe PIG00-14673 Pet Care Product receiver collar have to be held on top of the boundary wire to activate?

      Alexander ParkerAug 8, 2025
      If the receiver collar needs to be held on top of the boundary wire to activate, first, charge the receiver collar and ensure it is turned on with the battery status lights flashing every 4–5 seconds. Adjust the boundary width control knob clockwise to increase the activation distance. Verify the boundary control switch is at the correct setting for the amount of boundary wire used. If you're using a double loop layout, ensure the boundary wires are separated by at least 5 ft.

    What does it mean if the power light is on, the loop indicator light is off, and the fence transmitter loop alarm is sounding on my Petsafe PIG00-14673?

      Mackenzie ThompsonAug 17, 2025
      If the power light is on, the loop indicator light is off, and the fence transmitter loop alarm is sounding, check the boundary wire connections at the fence transmitter to ensure they are properly connected. Also, inspect the boundary wires for any breaks or damage, especially at the point where they enter the house.

    Why do I have an inconsistent signal with my Petsafe PIG00-14673 Pet Care Product?
    • S
      Sarah HollandAug 22, 2025
      An inconsistent signal may occur if the fence transmitter is too close to large metal objects or appliances; ensure it's at least 3 ft away. Make sure all boundary wire turns are gradual, with a minimum 3 ft radius. The boundary wire should not run parallel to or within 10 ft of electrical wires, neighboring containment systems, telephone wires, television or antenna cables, or satellite dishes. If a neighboring containment system is the cause, move your boundary wire farther away from it.

    What to do if the power and loop indicator lights are off on my Petsafe PIG00-14673?
    • A
      ashleycollinsAug 27, 2025
      If the power and loop indicator lights are off, check that the power adapter is correctly plugged into the fence transmitter and the outlet. If the system is plugged into a GFCI or RCD outlet, check and reset the circuit if needed. Verify the outlet is working by plugging in another device. Try plugging the fence transmitter into a different 120-volt outlet. If a surge protector is installed, try plugging the power adapter directly into the outlet.
