Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Light does not turn on.	No power, faulty bulb, incorrect wiring, remote batteries dead.	Check circuit breaker. Replace bulbs. Verify wiring connections. Replace remote batteries.
Motion sensor not detecting.	Incorrect sensitivity setting, sensor obstructed, ambient light too high.	Adjust sensitivity (L/M/H) on remote. Clear obstructions. Adjust Lux setting on remote or ensure it's dark enough for activation.
Light stays on constantly.	Continuous motion, incorrect mode, Lux setting too low.	Ensure no constant motion in detection area. Check selected lighting mode. Adjust Lux setting to a higher threshold.
Light flickers or dims unexpectedly.	Incompatible bulbs, loose connection, power fluctuations.	Ensure E26 dimmable LED bulbs are used. Check wiring connections. Consult an electrician if power fluctuations are suspected.
Remote control not working.	Dead batteries, remote out of range, signal obstruction.	Replace AAA batteries. Ensure remote is within range and pointed at the fixture. Remove any obstructions between remote and light.
