Troubleshooting (continued)
Problem
The light comes on for no
apparent reason.
The lights stay on
continuously.
The lights flash on and off.
The lights flash once then stay
off in manual mode.
Possible Cause
The motion sensor may be sensing
small animals or automobile traffic.
The "Sensitivity" setting is set too
high.
The outside temperature is much
warmer or cooler than a person's
body heat (summer or winter).
The light fixture is wired through a
dimmer or timer.
The motion sensor may be picking
up a heat source, such as an air
vent, dryer vent, or brightly painted,
heat-reflective surface.
The motion sensor is in manual
mode.
The "Sensitivity" setting is set too
high.
The light fixture is wired through a
dimmer or timer.
The light fixture is on the same
circuit as a motor, transformer, or
fluorescent bulb.
Heat is being reflected from other
objects and may be turning the mo-
tion sensor on and off.
Nearby large, light-colored objects
reflecting light may trigger the shut-
off feature.
