| Description |
| 1. |
The photo sensor is located at the center of defrost nozzle. |
| 2. |
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. |
Inspection 1. Ignition "OFF". 2. Disconnect evaporator temperature sensor. 3. Using the multi-tester, Measure resistance between terminal "1" and "2" of evaporator temperature sensor.
Inspection 1. Ignition "ON" 2. Using the scan tool. 3. Emit intensive light toward photo sensor using a lamp, and check the output voltage change.
Removal 1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal. 2. Remove the glove box housing. (Refer to Body - "Glove Box Housing") 3. Remove the SVM unit (B) after disconnecting the connectors (A) and mounting bolts. Installation 1. Install the SVM unit.
Inspection 1. Connect the battery voltage and check the blower motor rotation. 2. If the blower motor voltage is not operated well, substitute with a known-good blower motor and check for proper operation. 3. If the problem is corrected, replace the blower motor.
