Kia Sedona: Photo Sensor Description and Operation
The photo sensor is located at the center of the defrost nozzles.
The photo sensor contains a photovoltaic (sensitive to

portion, generates an electromotive force in proportion to the amount of
radiation received which is then transferred to the automatic
temperature control module so that the solar radiation compensation can
be performed.
