DESCRIPTION
The solar sensor is installed on the upper side of the instrument panel. It detects sunlight to control air conditioning AUTO mode. The output voltage from the solar sensor varies in accordance with the amount of sunlight. When the amount of sunlight increases, the output voltage increases. As the sunlight decreases, the output voltage decreases. The A/C amplifier detects changes in the output voltage from the solar sensor.

ECU Power Source Circuit
DESCRIPTION
When the ignition switch is turned to ON, voltage from the ECM's MREL terminal
is applied to the EFI MAIN relay. This causes the contacts of the EFI MAIN relay
to close, which supplies power to terminal +B of the TCM.
