Solar Lights not turning on even with new batteries, cleaned them all, and have plenty of sun.?


Question:
I replaced all the batteries and cleaned them. Some turn on during the day. I even tried putting them in the dark for 24 hours and then putting them back out and that didnt work. They are not blocked by anything and get plenty of sun. I need some help figuring out why they dont work.

Answer:
check all of your connections and make sure they are clean, then if that dont work, call a professional.
1. Do you have the right type of battery? Most of the ones that I have run on nicad rechargeable. 2.Check the battery connections, the tend to corrode because they are outside. 3. Test with a charged battery to see if light comes on. 4.Most newer solar lights are LED's because they are energy efficient. If they are not LE D's check the bulbs.
Try new bulbs
