It's prob not the light...if there is enough light the IR illuminators would be off more.

 

It may be the range to the base, signal strenght...

 

Easy test is to swap the two cameras and see if the problem follows the camera.  If it does then you may have a problem.

I have a camera on the front of my house . Every time a car go's passed I get a teXT. Some times ten in 4 minutes. Can I reduce the range of the camera so you have to be closer to the house before the camera pick up the movment

You likely have the camera aimed too high son the street is in sight or nearly so. Rotate it down or find a different mounting location that excludes the street.

Post a screenshot here so we can make specific recommendations.
