Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Verify that the power supply is switched on at the breaker. Check all wiring connections are secure and correct. Ensure the sensor is not obstructed and is clean.
Light stays on continuously
Ensure there is no constant motion within the sensor's detection range. Check for any environmental factors (like heat sources) that might be triggering the sensor. If the issue persists, contact a qualified electrician.
Sensor is not detecting motion
Make sure the sensor lens is clean and free from obstructions. Verify that the motion is within the 4-6 meter detection range. Check if the ambient light level is too high, as some sensors have a light sensitivity setting (though this model is described as non-dimming and likely has a fixed sensitivity for its automatic function).
Flickering light
Check the wiring connections for looseness. If the flickering persists, it may indicate an internal fault with the LED module or driver, and professional assessment may be required.
