Hi @AN2014 - this is unusual if everything else is working fine and possibly indicates a broken vibration motor.
Did you also try letting the battery die completely and fully charging again, given the fault it might not make any difference.
If by reset it, you only mean rebooted it, there remains a factory reset but a) it is unlikely to make a difference and b) it can fail and then you have no watch at all.
On the off chance it is still under warranty it can be replaced.

Hi @AN2014. I apologize if I misread your post. All Fitbits will vibrate for alarms and timers, even if you are in DND or Sleep Mode. Likewise, there are expected vibrations when you use the Exercise app with connected GPS. It vibrates when you put it on the charger. If you aren't getting vibrations under any of these circumstances, then I believe your vibration motor failed.
I don't recommend following @Guy_ 's suggestions. All Versa Lite batteries were manufactured in 2019. making them old in battery years. Some users are having issues with older batteries if they go completely dead. They won't charge at all. Likewise, there was a specific warning telling users NOT to do a factory reset on a Versa Lite, unless told to do so by a Fitbit technician.
