Has anyone attempted to retrofit auto lights on the mk3. It’s the only feature I don’t have on mine that I really miss! Probably going to attempt at some point. Any info would be appreciated! 

yes. "easy light", only light sensor - https://wirer.sk/easy_light/

with rain sensor and new front window - https://wirer.sk/f3_sklo-senzor-zrkadlo/

 

but manual only in slovak lang. use translator

Cheers mate

I am in the process of trying to retrofit the just the auto lights. The part number I have is 6v0907451  the guide says connect pins 1 and 4 but I only have 2 and 3 on my sensor

pins 2 and 3 serve as a sensor for automatic air conditioning. 1 and 4 are for the light sensor

Hi Have now got a new light sensor from the skoda dealer with pins 1 and 4. 

 

And have setup the coding using the guide wirer.sk

 

But i have an error code in vcds 

 

950280 - Light recognition sensor 
          B13CA 29 [009] - Signal Implausible
          Confirmed - Tested Since Memory Clear
             Freeze Frame:
                    Fault Status: 00000001
                    Fault Priority: 2
                    Fault Frequency: 1
                    Reset counter: 200
                    Mileage: 85306 km
                    Date: 2020.12.11
                    Time: 20:30:21

 

 

sensor voltage is stable at 0.6v when plugged in and does not change when dark or in daylight. 

Sensor voltage is 5v when unplugged. 

Lights are always on in auto position

Has anyone got any ideas

I went with the dashboard light sensor and followed wirer's manual. Happy to say it works brilliantly and I also get a auto light switch

Do you have vcds? Would you be able to check what your sensor voltage is when bright and dark. Its under central electrics advanced measured values. I wonder if my wiring has too high resistance.

 

Does anyone know how this sensor works. Is it a photosensitive resistor. And the bcm calculates voltage drop over the sensor. Or is it more complex.

Where did you get it from
