Sunlight Sensor Test

Sunlight Sensor Test

1. Remove the sunlight sensor.






2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). Measure the voltage between the terminals with the (+) probe on the No. 4 (with automatic lighting sensor) or No. 1 (without automatic lighting sensor) terminal and the (-) probe on the No. 2 terminal with the connector connected.

NOTE: The voltage readings will not change under the light of a flashlight or a fluorescent lamp. Voltage should be:

- 3.6 - 3.7 V or more with the sensor out of direct sunlight.
- 3.3 - 3.5 V or less with the sensor in direct sunlight.

3. If the voltage is not as specified, replace the sunlight sensor.
