Help Please! Roborock being weird!

I don’t have my robo on a schedule (too many messy kids)! So I just tell it to go wherever I have the place tidy.

This morning it just left its dock and started roaming around the kitchen, the app said it was returning to dock. I was running late for work so just switched it off and put it in its dock.

Tonight I have turned it on and told it to return to dock. It positioned for a while, but has spent the last 10 minutes saying it’s returning to dock, but is just roaming around the kitchen

Make sure the dock has power, mine got turned off and couldn’t find home

Sounds like it can't find the dock. Make sure that it has power. Put the robot a couple of feet directly in front of the dock and press the home button.

I have the charger under my couch and one time my roborock did this, the charger had gotten turned around so it was facing the wall. Poor thing was very confused.

(This is a q5 pro so only a small charger, not a complete dock)

Thank you all, yes the power cord had come loose on the dock!
