The sun sensor is designed for missions with demanding lifetime radiation thermal and mechanical requirements and can be used in leo meo geo and beyond.
Sun sensor location.
The bison64 et is a fine sun sensor for high reliable satellites applications and qualified within esa development activities.
Most sunload sensors are the photodiode type which provides increased resistance as the light intensity increases so the signal from the sensor drops as the sun shines brighter.
As sunlight increases the sensor s signal voltage decreases.
Sun load temperature sensor.
Disconnect sunload sensor connector.
The operating range is between 0 and 5 volts.
If the sun load sensor fails a fault code sets and the program enters a default value and tries to achieve the desired temperature setting.
The sun tracking sensors were experimented in operative conditions with direct exposition to the sun.
Analog sensor whose output signal is a continuous function of sun angle.
Sunload sensor may register a malfunction when indoors at dusk or at other times when light is insufficient.
When performing the diagnosis indoors light the sunload sensor with a lamp 60w or more.
Sun load sensor test.
Turn ignition switch on.
Sun presence sensor which provides a constant output signal.
In vehicle sensor component description in vehicle sensor the in vehicle sensor 1 is located on instrument lower panel lh.
Genuine subaru part 73730sa001 73730sa000.
When checking sunload sensor select a place where sun shines directly on it.
It s on the dash usually close to the headlight sensor.
1 check sunload sensor power supply.
Sun sensors are usually classified into three types.
The sun load sensor is what controls the automatic headlights in the ford crownvictoria mercury grand marquis and many other ford products.
View voltage readings in a capable scan tool datastream.
When they fail when not if the automatic headlights stay on all the time putting more strain on a fragile lcm lighting control module.
A sun sensor is a device that senses the direction to the sun to measure the position of the sun or other light sources with respect to the sensor position.
As the sun load increases the voltage decreases.
