1. Pull out the sunlight sensor (A) from the dashboard.





2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). Measure the voltage between terminals with the (+) probe on terminal No. 1 and the (-) probe on terminal No. 2 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 Service and Repair.
