dusk to dawn sensor


I had my house pressure washed but forgot to turn off the outside lights. now the lights come on during the day and not at night. what should I do, replace the sensor?

LOL, the pressure washer probably moved the slider control to another position.
check out what the light is set to. the housing should be labeled near the slider switch.
