First of all the National Electrical Code states that your black wire should be the hot and the white the neutral...the black on the switch goes to black in the wall...the white to the white...and the blue wire should be the switched lead that goes to the light

I think I found a solution: this appears to be a single-outlet version of GE 06655 Light-Sensitive 8-Hour Dual-Outlet Timer. I have tried matching the dial settings from the online image and it seems to work. There are seven settings on the timer switch. Set the pointer of the rotary switch dial so the ridge clicks into place with one end pointing precisely at the triangular switch position indicator. This is the Off position. Turn the dial one click clockwise, this is the Always On position. Then comes the 2-Hour setting, meaning it comes on at dusk and turns off after two hours. Then come the 4-hour, 6-hour and 8-hour settings. Finally, the Dusk-till-Dawn setting.

This timer requires a neutral wire, it may or may not be present in the back of your box as a group of wire nutted whites. It is NOT the single white switch leg.

Your charge fixed everything!

• When the switch is ON, the light operates in dusk-to-dawn mode. In this mode, the light automatically turns on at sunset and turns off at sunrise. When the switch is off, the light stays off.

It sounds like the button contacts aren't making good contact. If you can get behind them you can spray them with electrical switch cleaner. ..

Press P (program )on the timer and display will show then change the desired day, time and minute using the D+, H+ and M+ buttons. Press P again to set up another program and repeat the second step as above

Clear memory by pushing the reset button on the timer then reprogram using your current schedule when you want the timer to go off/on. Use the day and clock buttons for this then press enter

No, the timer should not make any noise. The noise should be a result of loose connections which cause arcing, which can make a humming or buzzing sound. If you find that you still notice the sound, even when the main breaker is off then the problem is not electrical in nature.

Question edited for clarity and add a header in order with spaces and CAPS. It appears Micromark got out or the timer business. There is a similar one in another Fixya post, and a link to them. https://www.google.com/search?q=Micromark+MM+9565+timer ..
