AUTO LIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM

Description
- BCM supplies voltage to the optical sensor when the ignition switch is turned ON or ACC.
- Optical sensor converts outside brightness (lux) to voltage and transmits the optical sensor signal to BCM.
- BCM judges dims/brightness of combination meter and display according to brightness outside the vehicle, when ignition switch is ON.
- BCM transmits dimmer signal to combination meter via CAN communication, according to auto light adjustment conditions. Dimmer signal is also transmitted to AV control unit.
NOTE:
As to dims/brightness timing, the sensitivity depends on settings. The settings can be changed with CONSULT. Head Lamp.
