PROBLEM POSSIBLE
CAUSE
CORRECTIVE
ACTION
If lights do
not turn on
at dusk.
It could be timer
is not in a good
area for light
meter to function
as there is too
much ambient
light to detect
darkness.
To correct the
problem, move the
timer to another
location where
there is no ambient
light.
If lights do
not turn on
even when
timer is “ON”
position.
It could be lights
are not in “ON”
position, lights
are not
functioning, or
timer is not
receiving power.
To correct the
problem be sure
that lights are
functional by
plugging them
directly into the
outlet. Be sure that
lights are in “ON”
position if they have
their own switch. Be
sure that timer is
receiving power -
the LED should light
up when plugged
into an outlet and
put in the “ON”
position.
If lights are
flashing
(turning on
and off).
It could be the
timer is in Dusk to
Dawn mode, and
the light from the
plugged-in lights
is affecting the
light sensor.
To correct the
problem, move the
lights away from the
timer, or reposition
the timer so that it
does not face the
lights.
