Troubleshooting Parking Lot Light Fixtures, Controls, and Wiring
We specialize in diagnosing and repairing all aspects of parking lot lighting systems — from faulty light fixtures to underground wiring and control issues.
Our team uses professional testing equipment to quickly locate and fix the root cause of lighting failures, ensuring your property remains well-lit, safe, and code-compliant.
We handle:
Malfunctioning parking lot light poles or fixtures
Faulty timers, sensors, or lighting controls
Damaged or corroded underground wiring
Power and circuit troubleshooting
Whether a single pole light is out or an entire row of lights is dark, our electricians have the skills and equipment to find and fix the problem right.
Converting Metal Halide or Sodium Fixtures to LED
If you’re still using metal halide or high-pressure sodium lights, now’s the time to upgrade.
MTE Electric offers LED conversion services that dramatically reduce energy costs and improve lighting performance.
Benefits of converting to LED:
50–75% lower energy usage
Brighter, more consistent light output
Reduced maintenance — no more frequent bulb or ballast changes
Longer lifespan and better reliability
We’ll assess your current parking lot lighting layout and recommend LED retrofit options that make sense for your property and budget.
Replacing Existing Fixtures with New LED Parking Lot Lights
Sometimes a full fixture replacement is the best option — especially if your poles or fixtures are outdated or damaged.
Our electricians can safely remove old lighting and install new, energy-efficient LED parking lot light fixtures on your existing poles or new mounts.
We ensure your system is properly grounded, wired, and aimed for maximum coverage and minimal glare. The result: a well-lit, professional-looking property that enhances safety and curb appeal.
Parking Lot Lighting Controls & Photocell Upgrades
Parking lot lighting systems often rely on time clocks or photocell controls to turn lights on at night and off during the day. When these controls fail or fall out of adjustment, your lights may stay on all day, turn on too late, or stop working altogether.
We can troubleshoot and replace faulty time clocks or photo controls to restore reliable operation to your parking lot lighting system.
Replace a Faulty Time Clock or Photocell
If your lights are not operating at the correct times, the control device may need replacement. We can diagnose the problem and install a new time clock or photocell control to keep your lighting operating properly.
Upgrade From a Time Clock to a Photocell
Many parking lot lighting systems still use mechanical time clocks that require periodic adjustments. We can replace your existing time clock with a photocell control that automatically turns lights on at dusk and off at dawn.
Upgrading to a photocell eliminates the need to:
Reset the time after a power outage
Adjust the clock when Daylight Saving Time changes
Reprogram the system as sunset times change with the seasons
Photocell controls provide a simple, reliable, and maintenance-free solution for parking lot lighting control.
Lamp Recycling & Liability Reduction
Old Metal Halide, Sodium, and LED lamps can’t just be tossed in the trash — California treats them as hazardous waste. Improper disposal can expose property owners to fines and environmental liability.
At MTE Electric, we properly handle and recycle your old lighting in compliance with California DTSC regulations, helping protect your business and reduce your liability. It’s one of the many ways that working with an experienced commercial electrician ensures your property is safe, compliant, and responsibly maintained.
Why Choose MTE Electric for Your Parking Lot Lighting Needs
When you hire MTE Electric, you’re choosing a company that owns its equipment — no rentals, no delays, and no extra costs passed on to you.
Because we own our aerial and service equipment:
It’s more economical for us to service your light fixtures
We can stand behind our work with confidence — we don’t have to rent lifts again just to honor a warranty
This makes it more likely we’ll come back to make things right, if ever needed
Our experience and diagnostic tools also allow us to pinpoint underground wiring problems and resolve them efficiently.
Few contractors in the High Desert have both the equipment and expertise that MTE Electric brings to every lighting project.
