benali10 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 My auto lights are very slow to turn on. I mean it needs to be virtually dark before they come on. Is anybody aware if there is a lux level setting that can be adjusted within the sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarbs Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Resurrecting this old thread. Anybody know the location of this sensor? What sort of operation does it have when set to auto? (I know the obvious!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Ford Galaxy Sun solar sensor, also known as the ambient light sensor. Located in the centre of the dashboard just behind the windscreen, looks like a little black dome. Automatically turns on the headlights if switch is set to 'auto' also used to adjust the brightness of the panel lights and switch illumination. On some models it also works in conjunction with the auto wipers to help with the correct operation of wipers in daylight fog or other unusual weather conditions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
