  1. Remove climate control unit and disconnect 8-pin and 20-pin connectors. Remove sunlight sensor and disconnect connector. See SUNLIGHT SENSOR R & I  . Check for continuity between ground and climate control unit 20-pin connector terminal No. 16 (White/Red wire).
  2. If continuity does exist, repair shorted White/Red wire between climate control unit and sunlight sensor. If continuity does not exist, check for continuity in White/Red wire between climate control unit connector and sunlight sensor connector. If continuity does not exist, repair open White/Red wire between climate control unit and sunlight sensor.
  3. If continuity does exist, check for continuity in Pink/Blue wire between climate control unit 8-pin connector and sunlight sensor connector. If continuity does not exist, repair open Pink/Blue wire between climate control unit and sunlight sensor. If continuity does exist, reconnect sunlight sensor connector.
  4. Test sunlight sensor. See SUNLIGHT SENSOR TESTING  . If sunlight sensor is okay, check for loose wires or poor connections at climate control unit 8-pin and 20-pin connectors and sunlight sensor connector. If connections are okay, substitute known-good climate control unit and recheck. If symptom does not exist after substituting known-good climate control unit, replace original climate control unit.
