Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on at all.

Check that the power supply is on at the mains. Ensure all wiring connections are secure. Verify the photocell is not being tricked by ambient light during testing.

PIR sensor is not detecting movement.

Ensure the PIR sensor is clean and free from obstructions. Check that the detection range and angle are suitable for the area. Adjust the sensor's sensitivity if possible (refer to specific model features if applicable).

Light stays on continuously.

Verify the timer setting is not set to the maximum duration. Check for any continuous heat sources or movement within the sensor's range that might be keeping it active.

Light turns on and off erratically.

Ensure the sensor is not aimed at sources of heat or rapid temperature change (e.g., vents, moving branches). Check for reflective surfaces that might be bouncing the sensor's signal. Reduce the timer duration if it's too long.
