I have a Tork 1101 24 hr timer that controls my outdoor lights. It turns them on, but does not turn them off. The off tripper is in place

Make sure timer is moving. I had same problem and replaced timer. It lasted more than 20 years.

the screw for the tripper may be loose allowing the catch to bypass it or the tripper may be slightly worn and will not make enough contact with the catch to hold

Had the same problem. Internal switch was broken. Test by removing the dial and activating the lever by hand. Solution was to replace the Tork 1101. Problem solved.

Try the dusk to dawn sensor! Cover it with a piece of duct tape and see if the light stays on and does not strobe. The reason is there may be an ambient light source near or close by affecting the sensors ability to work properly. I had this problem when I hung icicle lights up for the kids.

Not sure what timer you are referring to. There is a simple ON setting that bypasses the light sensor.

My light stays on most of the time... I haven't tried it on a timer though. I don't see why it wouldn't work with a timer.

I had mine hooked up so when I turn my key off it turns off. So, if you hook it straight to the battery it won't turn off. Have it hooked up to your lights if you don't want it to stay on.

Hi Linda, I have put my experience with the Woods Timers behind me. I had purchased two of them way back when, and they both failed and I've forgotten all I knew about them. Sorry I can't help you.

I used a timer with my lights. It doesnt come with it. You will have to get one from your local hardware, home depot or lowes.

you connect the 2 timer in series or parallel? (if series the timer front and back in the circuit may cause the on off problem)You are saying the timer can not switch to auto and the manual function also not working? Had you check your supply at the timer terminal is it connected correctly?The timer activation time "on" and "off" is set correctly?Do you set it to be turn on and off on specify day or everyday (need set and select day/days)

The motor that drives the timers clock needs power all the time. If the power is interrupted for a period of time the clock will stop and timer will be off the same amount of time the power was off. Check to see if the power that feeds the timer is on a switch that maybe turns on a light someplace in the house you maybe turning off and on the power that feeds the timers clock. Good Luck

There's also a sensor slider switch between lamp and reset switch... I believe it's a motion sensor. If it does not sense any movement for awhile, it will shutoff. Switch this to off if you want the stars continuously on or timed for an hour.

Make sure the little switch is positioned in the center Position. Left is OFF. Center is Timer program, and right position is on continuous. If the clock rotates automatically then it is wired correctly. If it still does not turn off then I don't know what the problem could be other than a mechanical failure.

Sorry---I can't answer this question regarding the unit timer, as I have mine set up for continuous use, as I have floodlights plugged into mine, which have their own built in motion detector for on/off functions & daylight off function. It has been very reliable so far, & the remote has worked flawlessly, when I wish to manually turn my floodlights on or off. Mine is mounted out of direct weather, underneath a raised porch, & the remote has worked from inside the house, through walls & floor with no problem.

Not sure is your case, but in my case, the light switch was too close to a shelf and therefore the timer's plate didn't fit. I just put it upside down and works perfectly. Of course, the program on/off changes.

I honestly don't know. I specifically purchased these trippers because our timer is a Tork timer. Sorry I can't be of more help.

If the LED lights won't turn-off during night or day, check your settings and make sure it's not in test mode. Read the instructions carefully and set it accordingly. If it doesn't function after carefully following the setting instructions, I suggest returning the product.

It doesn't look like there's anyway for it to be tuned off and I have by mistake left it charging for a few days in a row and still saw the light on. Hope this helped.

Make absolutely certain the trippers are aligned against the timer wheel. Go to Intermatic for a great troubleshooting guide.
