Outdoor Light Motion Sensor Not Triggering

To confirm the sensor is failing to trigger, observe the light during low-light conditions. Walk across the sensor's field of view at a distance of 5 to 10 feet. If the light remains off, attempt to force the light to turn on by switching the wall control to 'Manual Override' or 'On' mode. If the unit does not illuminate in manual mode, the power supply or bulb is compromised. If it illuminates in manual mode but fails to trigger via motion, the sensor mechanism is unresponsive.
