  Patrick SawyerAug 14, 2025
  If your GoodHome Flood Light isn't turning on when it detects movement, here are a few things to check: * First, make sure the power switch is turned ON at the circuit breaker or internal wall switch. * If it's a new installation, ensure the light fixture is properly attached to the mounting plate and that the pins are fully seated in the terminal block. Re-install the light fixture to the base. * Also for new installations, verify the wiring connections and ensure none are loose. * Check that the sensor is aimed correctly to cover the desired area. Re-aim the sensor to cover the desired area. * Finally, another light source might be interfering; try turning off surrounding lights or re-aiming the sensor head.

Why does my GoodHome Davern stay on all the time?
- T
  Tyler MeltonAug 17, 2025
  If your GoodHome Flood Light is staying on continuously, consider these potential causes: * Ensure the product is not wired through a dimmer or timer. Replace a dimmer or timer with a standard on/off wall switch. * The unit may be experiencing false activation. Cover the sensor lens completely with a thick cloth. If the unit switches off after the set time, the problem was false activation. Slightly adjust the direction or angle of the sensor head. * Make sure the unit isn't detecting unwanted objects like cars or people on nearby roads or footpaths. Adjust the direction or angle of the sensor head. * Check that the unit is operated in the mode of the motion sensor being activated.

  Joseph BradshawAug 25, 2025
  If your GoodHome Flood Light sensor isn't working at night, here are a few things to try: * The ambient light in the area might be too bright for the current LUX setting. During the hours of darkness, adjust the LUX control slowly until the lamp just illuminates. * Wiring inside the electrical came loose. After turning off the fixture, reconnect any loose wiring. * Ensure power is being delivered to the fixture. Check that the circuit breaker and/or wall switch power is on. * Another light source might be causing the unit to think it is daylight. Turn off surrounding lights and/or re-aim the sensor head.

  If your GoodHome Flood Light isn't switching off after the set time, consider these points: * The time might be set for too long. Reduce the time using the TIME knob. * Check that the unit is operated in the mode of the motion sensor being activated. * Continuous movement in the detection zone may be the reason. Change the detection zone or relocate the unit. * Light being operated in the detection zone causing sensor to respond as a result of change in temperature. Change the detection zone or relocate the unit.

Why does my GoodHome Davern flash on and off?
- T
  tiffany72Sep 2, 2025
  If your GoodHome Flood Light is flashing on and off: * Heat or light from the bulbs might be turning the sensor on and off. Relocate the unit away from the light source. * The sensor might be sensing reflected light from the light fixture. Change the position of the light head to aim the light away from reflecting surfaces, or relocate the unit to a different location where it no longer causes reflected light.
