Hi,
Is it possible to open up and rewire a motion sensor floodlight so the
motion sensor part is disabled? The motion sensor is not working on a
floodlight outside of my house and I'd rather have it just work with
the switch anyway. I know they're cheap but a trip to home depot is a
pain in the neck for me.


it should be no problem as long as you can get it apart

Not a problem at all. When you remove the unit, it will have three wires
attached to the motion detector head, white, black and red. With the power
turned off, all you have to do is cut the black and red wires where they
attach to the motion detector head, and splice them together with a wire
nut. The unit will now work as a standard floodlight
