Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause Solution
Light does not
come ON with
motion at night.
No power to the fixture. Check if circuit breaker tripped.
Confirm wall switch is ON.
Surrounding external ambient
light is too bright. (If so, the
unit may think it is daytime.)
Reposition the motion sensor.
Relocate or reposition the unit away from
the light.
Wiring to the unit is loose. TURN OFF POWER BEFORE CONTINUING.
Check wiring and reconnect if necessary.
Light comes on
for no apparent
reason at night.
There is motion in the
detection zone.
Make sure the sensor is not picking up moving
objects such as trees, traffic, etc.
TEST FOR YOURSELF:
Cover the sensor lens with cardboard to
prevent sensor from detecting motion. If the
light stays off, something in the detection
zone is triggering the sensor. If this is the
case, reposition the motion sensor.
If the light stays on with the sensor lens
covered, contact Customer Service.
Reposition the motion sensor.
