How To Disable Motion Sensor On Outdoor Light

Motion sensor lights are a great way to add security and convenience to your home. However, there may be times when you want to disable the motion sensor so that the light stays on continuously. Here are the steps on how to disable the motion sensor on an outdoor light:

1. Locate the motion sensor.

The motion sensor is usually located on the front of the light fixture. It is a small, black box with a lens that faces outward. The wiring for motion sensor is color-coded - brown or red for power in, black or blue for power out and green or yellow for earth.

2. Find the adjustment screw.

Once you have located the motion sensor, you will need to find the adjustment screw. This screw is usually located on the side or bottom of the sensor. It is a small, black screw with a slotted head.

3. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise.

Use a screwdriver to turn the adjustment screw clockwise. This will disable the motion sensor and allow the light to stay on continuously.

4. Test the light.

Once you have turned the adjustment screw, test the light to make sure that it is working properly. The light should now stay on continuously, even when there is no motion detected.

Tips:

* If you are having trouble finding the adjustment screw, consult the manufacturer's instructions. * You can also disable the motion sensor by removing the sensor head from the light fixture. However, this is not recommended as it may damage the light fixture. * If you want to disable the motion sensor for a short period of time, you can simply cover the sensor with a piece of tape.
