      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Automatic Light Control Sensor)

      Disconnect the automatic light control sensor connector.

    2. Measure the voltage and resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      P1-1 (CLTB) - P1-2 (CLTE) Engine switch off Below 1 V
      Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V
      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      P1-2 (CLTE) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω

      If the result is not as specified, there may be a malfunction on the wire harness side.

      Component with harness connected

      (Automatic Light Control Sensor)

      Connect the automatic light control sensor connector.

    4. Connect an oscilloscope to the automatic light control sensor connector.

    5. B002DNSN01

      Check the waveform.

      OK
      Tester Connection Tool Setting Condition Specified Condition
      P1-4 (CLTS) - P1-2 (CLTE) 2 V/DIV., 10 ms./DIV. Engine switch on (IG), light control switch in AUTO position Correct waveform is as shown

      Tech Tips

      The communication waveform changes according to the surrounding brightness.

      If the result is not as specified, the automatic light control sensor may be malfunctioning.
