## {% linkable_title Troubleshooting PIN not appearing %}
In some instances, the PIN will not appear as a persistent status or in the log files despite deleting `.homekit.state`, enabling logging, and reboot. The log files will include the error ```Duplicate AID found when attempting to add accessory```.
In such cases, modifying your configuration.yaml to add a filter limiting the included entities similar to the following:
```yaml
filter:
include_domains:
- light
```
Restart Home-Assistant and re-attempt pairing - a persistent status should now correctly appear.
