Hi,

Maybe one of you guys now\'s it.

Bad pictures i know but the front window makes it hard to get a good photo :D
And attached with few wires.

If its sunny out it knows to increase the intensity of the aircon to reach the set temperature

I doubt it, as it won\'t be able to "sense" the sunlight without the sensor... The air con system itself will still work though.
