I don't have auto lights.
Why would the aircon need a brightness sensor??

Its as magma said. It needs it for auto aircon to know the position of the sun and intensity, so it can redirect the area where you will feel hottest
Pretty smart thing i love how it works.

Sounds like another one of those 'fault waiting to happen' additions

Can't say I have a problem with it, just wondered what it was.
The only problem I have with my aircon is that it stops working every now and again and won't heat up. Fan works ok just no heat. If it doesn't work on the way to work, it usually works on the return trip, annoying but no biggie.
