(3) Auto light (LIN)

The auto light sensor unit is installed to the back side of the ECM mirror located upper center of the 

windshield, and detects the illuminance change. The BCM communicates with the auto light sensor 

when the ignition is turned on, and turns on or off the tail lamp and headlamp automatically according to 

the signals from the sensor when the multifunction switch is set to AUTO light.

The BCM communicates with the rain sensor even if the multifunction switch is in tail lamp.
