TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem

Possible Cause

Lights do not turn on at dusk

Lights do not turn on, even 
when timer is in “ON” position.

Lights are not in “ON” position, lights 
are not functioning, or timer is not 
receiving power.

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.

Lights are flashing (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.

Timer is not in a good area for light 
meter to function as there is too 
much ambient light to detect darkness.

Move the timer to another location where there is no ambient light.
