| Inspection |
| 1. |
Emit intensive light toward the photo sensor using a lamp, and check
the output voltage change.
|
| 2. |
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. |
Press the lock pin, separate the photo sensor connector (A).
|
| 4. |
Install in the reverse order of removal.

Description The photo sensor is located at the center of the defrost nozzles. The photo sensor contains a photovoltaic (sensitive to sunlight) diode.
Description The 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.

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 th
