Why do my Defiant DF-5416-BK-A lights stay on?
- Ddale95Jul 30, 2025
If your Defiant Security System lights stay on continuously, there might be several reasons. First, a bulb might be too close to the motion sensor or pointed at objects that reflect heat. Try repositioning the bulb. Second, the motion sensor could be picking up a heat source like an air vent. You can decrease the “RANGE” setting or reposition the sensor. Also, check if the sensor is in manual mode and switch it to auto. Ensure the light fixture isn't wired through a dimmer or timer; if it is, replace them with a standard on/off switch. Finally, the light fixture should be on a circuit without motors, transformers, or fluorescent bulbs.
