If you look on the back, you will find the instructions engraved in it. You will need good eyesight. Is it the one with the photocell for Christmas lights? Plug it in, press the button once for set, press again until you reach the number of hours (say 6) after dark you want it it on. Take note that when you set it, the light will be on. It won't work properly until the next day. On at dusk (5:00pm is) and off after the preset (6) hours. https://www.google.com/search?q=woods+outdoor+timer+instructions Two button

It is faulty. Take it back for exchange. On old / aged models is is a sticking motor or missing teeth in a sprocket. https://www.google.com/search?q=woods+model+59101r+timer+clock+stops+working ..

It is possible that your Woods timer is malfunctioning due to a power surge or power outage. You can check the time settings by pressing the "SET" button on the timer and then using the "+" and "-" buttons to set the time. If the timer is still not setting correctly, then it is likely the timer is damaged and needs to be replaced.

Question edited for clarity to add maker (what it is). Moved categories from Refrigerators to Woods Timer. Yes, no problem. The display creates a small amount of heat. https://www.google.com/search?q=digital+model+50029 ..

1) Put black tape over photoelectric eye on timer.
Photo-eye is small round eyeball that bulges out.
See of lights stay on.

2) Turn timer away from source of light so photoelectric eye does not pick up feedback from lights.

It sounds like photo eye is receiving enough light that it turns off, 'thinking' it's dawn.
And then when lights are off, photo eye 'thinks' it's dark again, so lights come back on.

Let me know if this is the answer, because it's Christmas season, and folks have been asking about blinking outdoor timers. And then you're en-route to become fixya expert and boost your GNP by 3 cents an answer.
