Post subject: 06 RAV4 question, sensors on dash, what are they?
Archived from groups: alt>autos>toyota (more info?)

On my 06 RAV4 (Limeted) there are 2 sensors on the dash in front of
the driver. Does anybody know what they are? I asked the sales droid
when I bought it and he didn't know. I noticed that these were called
out while looking for a dash cover so I imaging one would not want to
have them covered up?
Thanks if you can help.

I am not familiar with the dashboard on your vehicle, but if the sensors are
black circular buttons located in or near the front defroster vents, then
they are probably photosensors for things like automatic headlights,
dashboard lights, and air conditioning.

So far I like it just fine although my wife gets to drive
it mostly. ;-(
With the 269hp v6 that thing is almost scarry fast.
Way easy to speed, got to be careful, it likes 80 on the
freeway even when I try to keep it slower.
