Troubleshooting
Lights not turning on at dusk
Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight for adequate charging. Check that the connection between the solar panel and the lights is secure. Verify that the unit is switched on (if applicable) and test in a completely dark environment.
Lights are dim or only stay on for a short period
The solar panel may not be getting enough direct sunlight. Relocate the panel to a sunnier spot. Clean the solar panel surface. The battery may need time to fully charge after initial setup or if exposed to prolonged cloudy weather.
Intermittent flickering or malfunctioning
Check all connections between the solar panel and the light string, as well as between connectable sets. Ensure bulbs are screwed in securely. A faulty bulb could be the cause; try replacing individual bulbs.
Solar panel is damaged
Inspect the solar panel for any visible cracks or damage. If damaged, replacement of the unit or the entire light string may be necessary. Contact customer support if within the warranty period.
