Light Sensor

Using an advanced optical sensing system, the light sensor can detect the surrounding light condition and automatically

activate or deactivate the headlights and interior illumination. This technology provides drivers with added safety,

convenience, and comfort in various weather conditions.

Additional features:

  • Light sensitivity adjustment
  • Automatic function can be disabled
  • Turn-on delayed for 5 seconds while starting the car
  • Lights remain on for 30 seconds after the car is turned off to light your way



Rain Sensor

The rain sensor is a highly versatile device for automatic wiping of the windshield when it is wet due to moisture,
raindrops or even mud. It works by reflecting harmonious light beams within a windshield and detecting a drop in
the light beam intensity.


Additional features:
  • 0.1 second response time
  • Detection of 0.005 milliliters of water

Package Contents

  • Rain/Light Sensor
  • Control Module
  • Two 30A Relays
  • 20A Fuse
  • Wiring Harnesses
  • Window Sticker

i have my 244 to install on and do a write up... that'd be the basics.

i have wiring diagrams for 850/x70 to figure out specifics (+ anyone local?)

-for the lights you'd probably want to use that little screw to toggle the auto-lights... right? it currently controls DRL

-rain sensors... would you give up the intermittent? which some of you have already paid to 'upgrade'

i'd put in the effort to make an understandable installation guide...

This might be a cool upgrade but I am not willing to give up my programmable intermittent wipers, at least not yet.

Brian I'll be a guinea pig and 55 is a good deal on this. How bout I pay for te kit and we can install it together to figure out a write up?

thanks, that'd be perfect...

$55 was with me taking a guess at only the cost of shipping them to me... and I was being generous. I'm waiting on that quote.

for keeping the programmable intermittent wiper function, a toggle switch would be the cheapest solution... but with some more costly relays/etc I don't see why that couldn't be a behind the scenes kinda thing...

and if you could keep both? maybe turn it on-off-on for rain-sensing?

YES guy. That sounds great.

programmable intermittent wipers?

The wiper relay from some VW's that has a 99 stamped on it works in 850 cars. And maybe others. Searchy searchy :ph34r:

Jordan sell them often in the for sale section. Excellent 25$ investment. I have one. Yay for me.

I think maybe throw in a few more bucks and I can work up some plug and play harnesses...

wiper harness would plug in where the intermittent relay goes (and either replaces it altogether or branches to both)

headlight switch... i dunno... i need to look at one.

i have mine, and even a wiper switch... so i may wire a mock system... my thoughts were a circuit that routes to one or the other...

do you have a spare light switch?

really i just need to sit down with my big book of volvo wiring diagrams cause I think this is a go.
