Is there power to the fixture?
• Check to see that the circuit breaker has not been tripped.
• Be sure the wall switch is in the "ON" position.
• Be sure that the bulb is not burned out or broken.
Is the surrounding external ambient light too bright? (If so the
unit may think it's daytime.)
• Re-aim the head.
• Relocate or reposition the unit away from the light.
TURN OFF POWER BEFORE CONTINUING.
Is the wiring to the fixture loose?
• Check wiring, and reconnect if necessary using wire nuts
provided.
Is there 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, reduce the sensitivity.
• Reposition motion sensor.
*If the light stays on with sensor lens covered, contact
customer service.

If there is no motion, then the unit may be in the override mode.

mode?
• Move the switch to the AUTO 4 or 12 position.
Is the motion detector shadowed?
• Reposition motion sensor.
Is the surrounding external ambient light too bright? (If so the
unit may think it's daytime.)
• Re-aim the head.
• Relocate or reposition the unit away from the light.
Are you allowing adequate time to enter the dusk to dawn
mode?
• Turn power on and off twice within 3 seconds
