Having some difficulty getting a B@Q FLOODLIGHT TO WORK?

INSTALLED A FLOODLIGHT AS PER INSTRUCTIONS. SWITCHED ON POWER TO TEST, BUT UNIT IS NOT ILLUMINATING . I HAVE SET THE LIGHT SENSOR AND TIMING CONTROLS EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED.
I HAVE CHECKED THE CIRCUIT WIRING ,THE FUSES AND THE CIRCUIT BREAKER - ALL ARE OKAY. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS????????????????
NEVER EVER EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS BEFORE.

Hi Michael

Thanks for your response. I am pleased to say that the unit is now fully operational.
The problem seemed to be that even although I followed the instructions implicitly for the 'walk test' during daylight hours, the unit would not do an initial switch on.
I am therefore assuming that there was must be a problem with the setting of the light detector and /or the instructions!
Anyway I adjusted the settings in the evening and everything is A okay.
But taking your advice , I purchased a small meter and your suggestion to check there was power was going to be my next course of action.
Grateful to you, - thanks a million

do you have the means of checking that you actually have a voltage at the light
