SOLAR RADIATION SENSOR INSPECTION
1. Using a tester, connect the positive (+) lead to solar radiation sensor terminal A, the negative (-) lead to
terminal B or C, then measure the resistance.
z
If the resistance is not normal, replace the solar radiation sensor.
Resistance
except infinity ohms
2. Block the light to the solar radiation sensor, connect the positive (+) lead of a tester to solar radiation
sensor terminal B or C and negative (-) lead to terminal A, then measure the resistance.
z
If the resistance is not normal, replace the solar radiation sensor.
Resistance
infinity ohms (no continuity)
3. Expose the solar radiation sensor to natural sunlight.
4. Using a tester, connect the positive (+) lead to solar radiation sensor terminal B or C, the negative (-) lead
to terminal A, then measure the resistance.
z
If the resistance is not normal, replace the solar radiation sensor.
