Also i don't know if this matters but the problem started after i had to replace the bulb it was a clear bulb and i didn't have another like that so i have a regular white bulb in it now.

Thanks

Some fixtures are intelligent.

If you turn the power on to the light, then turn it off for 3-10 seconds and power it back on, the light will stay on regardless of motion or photo cell.

The solution is to power the light off for about 60 seconds, then power on and it should resume normal operation.

I have several of these and use the "Stay on" feature when we have guests coming over.
