(to Automatic Light Control Sensor)

(a) Disconnect the M1 automatic light control sensor connector.

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

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

M1-1 (CLTB) - M1-2 (CLTE)

Power switch off

Below 1 V

Power switch on (IG)

11 to 14 V

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

M1-2 (CLTE) - Body ground

Always

Below 1 Ω

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

(c) Connect the M1 automatic light control sensor connector.

(d) Connect an oscilloscope to terminals M1-2 (CLTE) and M1-4 (CLTS) of the automatic light control sensor connector and check the waveform.
