Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action
The lights do not turn on
at dusk.
The timer is not in a good
area for the light sensor
to function as there is too
much ambient light to
detect darkness.
Move the timer to another
location where there is no
ambient light.
The lights do not turn on,
even when the timer is in
the ON position.
The lights are not in the
ON position, the lights
are not functioning, or
the timer is not receiving
power.
Ensure that lights are
functional by plugging
them directly into the
outlet. Ensure that lights
are in the ON position
if they have their own
switch. Ensure that the
timer is receiving power
- the LED should light up
when plugged into an
outlet and put in the ON
position.
The lights on the timer
are ashing (turning on
and off).
The timer is in Dusk-
to-Dawn mode and the
light from the plugged-in
lights is affecting the light
sensor.
Move the lights away from
the timer, or reposition the
timer so that it does not
face the lights.
