How do I repair a porch light that isn't working? Details below.? - porch ceiling light

The porch light hung from the roof of the patio with a rope. It has 4 lights. Even after changing the bulbs (working) in other lamps, the porch light is not activated when you restart the switch. What can I do? Thank you.

.., Neutral, or is the switch located on the disk .. Take the camera off and make sure both are connected to the son (3 in fact include the floor .. hot wire is black and bare copper wire or green wire is a country ... I seriously doubt this is all not Turn a dedicated circuit make for a single light of the entry .. it would be more than likely that 4 or 5 candles or lamps on the line was installed .. unless you have other objects that do not do not turn off the switch .. / .. Backup . If each output cable to a dedicated circuit .. you're 40 or 50 switches in one housing .. if you hold a service center that will find a lot. ..

The problem might be in the light, the cable that goes from the light, or change, you have a loose connection in May in the box above the lights or switch box. Hopefully, the cable is located on the switch. If you have a voltage tester cheap, would be many problems to solve. Check the power switch to turn off they have. not thid after a probe into the black (hot) and the other wire to the ground wire (bare or green) or neutral (white) If you have the power to another thread on the switch of the same control path. This wire is your switch leg. If you have the power of your switch is good. If there is no substitute for the switch. Then take a light under the light. Check is the force with the power switch. If you have the power to control the connection of the cable. If all are tight and good, you bad, if not, go to the attic and follow the path of the electricity power to reach the light.
Good luck

Could one of many problems. If you have already changed the bulbs, I would be the light switch. If after the test and find the switch that is being sent, then you can cut a bad connection or a cable somewhere between the switch and lighting. Hope this helps.
