On my 2009 G Cherokee dashboard , located just behind the reverse sensor display, is what looks like an oversized led. It doesnt light up though.
What is it ? not sure if its alarm or climate system :017:

rain/light sensor?
not sure i think theyre covered by the unit up behind the mirror . Dont know for sure though :icon_biggrin:
-
It's the sun sensor, used for auto headlights.
-
its the sense sensor not normally known to come on
-
If it's like earlier systems, it's a solar sensor, it helps the climate control regulate cabin temperature.

Sun sensor makes a lot of sense, not sure it does the headlights though :017:
Thanks for the answers. Conclusion is best not to cover it up with my snooper :icon_winkle:

rain sensors are normally placed behind the rear view mirror at the top of the windscreen

yes i thought that unit did the lights too ?

most do but it does also depend on the manufacturer, but Mike has extensive factory knowledge so i'm not disagreeing with his advice
