  1. Using an ohmmeter, connect the positive lead to terminal 2 and the negative lead to terminal 1, then measure the resistance between the terminals.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Connection
    Specified Condition
    1 - 2
    Sensor subject to electric light
    Except ∞ Ω
    1 - 2
    Sensor covered with a cloth
    ∞ Ω
    NOTICE:
    The connection procedure for using a digital tester such as a TOYOTA electrical tester is shown above. When using an analog tester, connect the positive (+) lead to terminal 1 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 2 of the A/C solar sensor.
    HINT:
    1. As the inspection light is moved away from the sensor, the voltage increases.
    2. Use an incandescent lamp for inspection. Bring it within 30 cm (11.8 in.) of the A/C solar sensor.
    If the result is not as specified, replace the solar sensor.
