Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Rain/lights/solar/condensation Sensor
The rain/lights/solar/condensation sensor is the same as the rain/driving lights/solar sensor, but has been enhanced with the condensation sensor function. The functionality of the rain sensor, the driving lights sensor and the solar sensor have been retained in full. This means, for example, that the driver is still assisted by the rain sensor automatically initiating the procedure for switching on the windscreen wipers.
The automatic wiping does not relieve the customer from the responsibility of wiping the windscreen. For this reason, the customer can override the automatic wiping function at any time by moving the wiper switch on the steering column stalk up or down or pulling it towards him.
The driving lights sensor supplies the on and off signal for the automatic driving lights control function.
