    Switch Condition
    Specified Condition
    I1-6 (CLTB) - I1-3 (CLTE)
    Power switch off
    Below 1 V
    Power switch on (IG)
    10 to 14 V

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition

  1. Check the waveform.

    OK:
    Tester Connection
    Tool Setting
    Switch Condition
    Specified Condition
    I1-3 (CLTE) - I1-5 (CLTS)
    5 V/DIV., 5 ms./DIV
    Power switch on (IG), light control switch in AUTO position
    Correct waveform is as shown

    HINT:
    If the ambient light becomes brighter, width A becomes narrower.

    If the result is not as specified, the automatic light control sensor may have a malfunction.
