I've changed the bulb, but light didn't come on at night like it should. Faulty bulb or is there a photocell that has quit.

    Most likely the sensor is dirty or bad. Try cleaning that first. It's possible it's something else like wiring or bulb but sensor would be my first bet.

    Kathy's correct, the sensor "eye" may be dirty, or perhaps the indoor switch to the light got turned off mistakenly.

    Cory: I had issues with that because it was in the shade all day
