I Dont Know What This Part Is

[jarvo32]

Can anyone help? Got no idea what this part is. It's on my dash of my 32gtst top left Where the screw plug is

I can't upload a pic, it's like a clear plug with a wire in it on the very top of dash near vents, it's a clear browny plug?

Any ideas??

Sunlight sensor for climate control?

Plug for the antenna (built into the front windscreen from memory)?

Why cant you upload a pic?

Been wondering what they are on my 34. But now what do they do?

If its the sunlight sensor it senses the sun (obviously ) and then adjusts fan speed to compensate

In auto mode right? I'd thought it adjusts accordingly to the temp sensor under the dash. Don't see a point in sun sensor. Could be a chilly day with bright light!

sit in your car on a sunny day (even in winter) with the air con off and windows up. How quick does it become to warm?

Compare this to night time on the same day

See my point, it does make a difference. And yes only in Auto, would work in conjunction with the interior temp sensor.

Will give that a try one day, just to see if it works hah!
