8. Troubleshooting

Problem

•  The lamp stays  
  ON all the time  
  at night.

•  The PIR keeps  
  activating for no  
  reason at random.

•  The PIR will not  
  operate at all.

Solution

Cover PIR lens with a thick cloth. If the light turns out, 
check detection area for heat or reflective source.  
If the light stays ON, check wiring (See section 6. 
Connection Diagram).

Turn off at the isolation switch. Turn back ON again 
after 30 seconds. Leave for approximately 15 minutes. 

If light activates, check area for false activation from 
heat, wind or reflective source.

Check that the power is switched ON at the power 
supply or isolation switch. 

Turn OFF the power to the unit and check the wiring 
connections (See section 6. Wiring Diagram). 

Check the lamp. If the lamp has failed, replace. 
Ensure that the lamp is seated correctly in the lamp 

holder. Please note that the unit will not detect 
through glass. (e.g. in a glazed porch).
