porch light electrical issue?

Our house was built in 1941. When we had our inspection, the porch light worked just fine. Now it doesn’t work at all. Yes, we have tried new bulbs. The strange thing is that there is a switch outside our door, which may be for an outdoor outlet, and a switch inside our door. We’ve tried various methods of switching one off, the other one, both on…but there is also a motion sensor thingamabob (technical term) outside near the light. Could this be the source of our problem? Any suggestions, aside from a costly electrician? Easy fixes we can do.

Think of this as a fun little puzzle you can solve by the process of elimination. Buy a simple neon tester from Home Depot (about $2.95). It should be the kind with a little LED light in a plastic housing and 2 wires sticking out. This gadget will tell you which wire is “hot”.

Test a light bulb in a lamp to be sure it is good, then place it in your porch light fixture.

Stick the leads of your tester into the outdoor outlet and see if it lights up. If so, try the switches to see if one turns off the power to that outlet. If not, try the switches to see if one turns on the power to the outlet. If one of the switches controls the outlet, then we can ignore it in our subsequent testing. (Unless we come up zero and have to return to it.)

First lets test the motion sensor which is the most likely suspect.
Turn off the power.
Remove the motion sensor and disconnect the two wires going to it.
Short the wires together and tape them together with electrical tape temporarily.

Turn on the power and test every combination of your switches: both up; both down; outside up/inside down; inside up/ outside down.

If at any time the porch light comes on, the problem is with the motion sensor and you can either replace it or cap it off with the leads shorted together.

Second let’s ensure the light fixture is not faulty.

Remove the light bulb from the fixture.

Turn off the power.

Remove the light fixture.

Tape the leads of your neon tester to the two leads formerly connected to the fixture. Turn the power back on and test the various switch positions as above. If the tester lights up in any of those switch positions, it is the fixture that is bad and needs to be re-wired or replaced.

If the problem has still not been revealed: let’s test the switches.

Turn off the power.

Remove both switches from the boxes and disconnect the wires from the switches leaving the wires well separated and outside of the boxes.

Turn on the power.

Wearing snug latex or rubber gloves, hold the white wire of your tester against the metal box and , in turn, touch the black tester wire to each of the leads (that were on the switches). Eventually, one of the “touches” should produce light on your tester. That is the “hot” one;

Test all the other leads to ensure you don’t have another “hot” lead.

(if the boxes housing the switches turn out to be plastic or non-metal, you have another problem; please post again)

Still wearing your gloves, short the “hot” wire to the other wire that was attached to the switch in that box. The porch light should come on. If it does, just install a new switch in that box.

If it does not, try shorting the two wires in the other switch box together, then try the two wires in the “hot” box.

By now, your problem should be resolved, but if not, you have the idea of systematically testing each component.

Have fun, but be careful. Electricity can give you a nasty burn. Wear your gloves and keep the power off while bare wires are exposed unless you are actually testing and on your highest “personal alert”. Keep kids and other distractions away while you are working with live power.

Once you have taken care of the large majority of landscaping elements of your home, what more can you do to make the exterior space more inviting and functional? Often, projects such as outdoor kitchens and in-ground swimming pools are nice and luxurious improvements that are just too darn expensive for most of us. But an addition that can be a real difference maker, both in attractiveness and functionality, is the porch awning.

An awning for the porch can give you protection against harsh weather (independent of the season), help you save on heating and cooling, all while adding an attractive feature to your home. A well-chosen and well-placed awning can make your porch a desired place to gather while offering, in many cases, an all-seasons shelter against the elements.

There is no end to the variety of colors and styles of awnings and awning material with which you can dress up the porch.

Lightweight and sturdy, the best of them are built to last a lifetime. Take your time doing your awning research and you will be sure to find one that combines well with your home’s existing design and color scheme.

One of the things that you should insist on when shopping for a porch awning is some kind of solid guarantee that it will endure occasional harsh conditions. Manufactures will take different things into consideration in the construction of a n awning, depending on the kind of weather that is typical in any given area of the country. Most companies that are worth consideration will stand behind their work. Do some additional research on any of the companies that you are considering to make sure that they are businesses in good standing. You might even investigate with the BBB to verify that no history of complaints exist against the manufacturer that you are considering.

Inquire as to the wind resistance of an awning that you are contemplating buying. What kind of load can the awning support? Do you want something permanent? Would you prefer a retractable awning? The answers to these and many other questions will depend on the kind of weather that is typical of where you live and what kind of budget you have established for just such an expense. A very popular choice and one that can spur on ideas of your one are the Alumawood Awnings. Check out some of the examples on the internet to make proper comparisons.

It is quite possible that you are enamored with the more traditional canvas awning look. Most of the manufacturers of this type of awning have been able to integrate a practically unlimited number of colors and designs for your porch. This makes it very easy to find the perfect match for your home.

You can also choose between retractable and permanent awnings. The more sophisticated retractable versions offer easy-to-use motorized features. There are a host of highly reputable brands from which to choose, but you should certainly consider awnings by Fiamma and Sunbrella to get an idea of some of the variety of very attractive and high-quality designs.

Regardless of whether the awning is for your home patio or for the RV porch, having one will make your outdoor living infinitely more enjoyable. Give your porch a little TLC and extend your living area today.
