| Inspection |
| 1. | Turn the ignition switch ON. |
| 2. | Connect the GDS. |
| 3. | Emit intensive light toward the photo sensor using a lamp, and check the output voltage change. |
| 4. | The voltage will rise with higher intensive light and reduce with lower intensive light.
|
| Replacement |
| 1. | Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal. |
| 2. | Using a screwdriver or remover, remove the photo sensor (A).
|
| 3. | To install, reverse the removal procedure. |
Description The photo sensor is located at the center of the defrost nozzles.The photo sensor contains a photovoltaic (sensitive to sunlight) diode. The solar radiation received by its light receiving portion, generates an electromotive force in proportion to the amount of radiation received which is transferred to the automatic temperature control module so that the solar radiation compensation will be performed.
DescriptionThe ambient temperature sensor is located at the front of the condenser and detects ambient air temperature. It is a negative type thermistor; resistance will increase with lower temperature, and decrease with higher temperature.
DescriptionThe auto defogging sensor is installed on the front window glass. The sensor judges and sends signal if moisture occurs to blow out wind for defogging. The air conditioner control module receives signal from the sensor and restrains moisture and eliminate defog by controlling the intake actuator, A/C, auto defogging actuator, blower moto
Removal • Put on gloves to prevent hand injuries. • When removing with a flat-tip screwdriver or remover, wrap protective tape around the tools to prevent damage to components.
