The automatic light control sensor detects ambient light. The sensor creates an electrical signal based on the amount of light detected, and sends the signal to the main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU). The main body ECU (multiplex network body ECU) turns on or off the headlights and taillights according to the signal.

Cover the automatic light control sensor with an opaque object.
According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List and check that the value of Light Sensor Illuminance changes while performing the following:
Slowly move the opaque object to uncover and then cover the automatic light control sensor.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Normal Condition | Reference Value | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Light Sensor Illuminance | Light control sensor illuminance | 0 to 8191 lx or Sensor Fail | Value is output according to ambient light level | The displayed value is "0" when no light is detected. |
| Tester Display |
|---|
| Light Sensor Illuminance |
The value changes according to the amount the automatic light control sensor is covered.
