Sun Sensor

Vehicle Type:
911 Turbo (996)

Model Year:
As of 2001(1)

Concern:
Sun sensor fault found stored in the instrument cluster.

Information:
It is possible to have a fault stored in the instrument cluster indicating a "Sun sensor - open circuit, short to ground", even though no fault is present. This fault occurs when the PST2 is scanning the instrument cluster during the control unit search. This fault must be ignored unless it is also stored in the fault memory of the air conditioning system.

The software in the instrument cluster has been modified since the end of May, 2000 to eliminate this problem.
