Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible Cause
Solution
The light will not turn
ON at night.
The Power button is OFF.
Make sure the Power button is in the ON position.
The batteries may be depleted.
Check the connections between light and panel. Ensure the panel receives ample sunlight.
The extension cord between the solar panel and
light fixture is longer than 60 ft.
Connect to a shorter extension cord, or reposition the solar panel closer to the light fixture.
The solar panel is not positioned correctly.
The solar panel must face South and have clear exposure to the sun.
The motion sensor is not detecting motion.
Increase the SENS and decrease the LUX to make the unit more sensitive to motion in the dark.
Light from other sources (light poles, headlights)
is not allowing the unit to activate.
Increase the LUX setting to compensate for the additional light sources.
The air temperature is too hot or too cold.
The light will operate normally when temperatures return within operational range.
IMPORTANT:
This guide is a quick reference only for common features of the product and
troubleshooting tips. Please read and reference the full instruction manual for installation, safety,
and additional information.
This light operates with a battery charged from a solar panel. If the voltage of the nickel-metal
hydride (Ni-MH) batteries run down to 3V, the light will not activate when the motion sensor is
triggered. When the solar panel has recharged the Ni-MH batteries, and voltage is above 3V, the
light will return to normal operation.
