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Sometimes a full fixture replacement is the best option — especially if your poles or fixtures are outdated or damaged.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.

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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


  • In most cases, our electricians limit work to parking lot light poles under 30 feet in height. This range accommodates the majority of strip malls, office spaces, and industrial facilities we service.

    On the rare occasion that your property has poles exceeding this height, we typically refer the project to a specialty company equipped to handle taller structures safely and efficiently.

    We maintain this height limit due to equipment restrictions and our commitment to maintaining the quality and warranty of our work. Because we generally do not rent equipment, doing so could impact how we support and warranty your project if a material failure were to occur.

    We proudly provide parking lot lighting services throughout Adelanto, Apple Valley, Barstow, Helendale, Hesperia, Lenwood, Lucerne Valley, Oak Hills, Oro Grande, Phelan, Silver Lakes, Spring Valley Lake, and Victorville, California.

  • For safety and liability reasons, our electricians will not work directly over parked vehicles. If a car is located directly beneath a light pole, we’ll move on to the next available pole that requires service while waiting to see if the vehicle owner returns.

    Once the car has been moved, our electricians will cone off the space and return to complete the work on that pole.

    If the vehicle owner cannot be located, our electrician will leave for the day, and we’ll make arrangements to return on another day to finish the service.

    This policy is in place to prevent accidents and protect both your property and ours.

    MTE Electric provides professional parking lot lighting services across Adelanto, Apple Valley, Barstow, Helendale, Hesperia, Lenwood, Lucerne Valley, Oak Hills, Oro Grande, Phelan, Silver Lakes, Spring Valley Lake, and Victorville, California.

  • At MTE Electric, safety and quality come first. We do not perform parking lot lighting services on days with rain, lightning, or high winds. These conditions can create unsafe environments for both our electricians and your property.

    If your project is scheduled during poor weather, the work may be cut short or rescheduled. We’ll move your service to the next available day with weather conditions suitable for safe and effective work.
