XRV Rain Light Sensor Fault

I own a Honda XRV as well, though not a 2022 model, and your symptoms ring a bell. I recall another user mentioning something about bubbles forming under the gel pad on the windshield affecting the sensor's performance. Did you check the windshield condition around the sensor?

Thanks! I hadn't considered the windshield. Could you elaborate on where these bubbles would form and how they might impact the sensor readings? Would this cause all the symptoms I'm seeing?

From what I understand, the bubbles form directly under the gel pad where the rain sensor attaches to the windshield. I can't guarantee it's the cause, but it's plausible that these bubbles interfere with the sensor's ability to accurately detect light and rain, causing the cascade of issues you're experiencing. Visiting a workshop might be best to be sure.

I appreciate the insight! I inspected the gel pad and found small bubbles. I followed your advice and went to the workshop. After replacing the sensor, which cost me 62€, everything works again. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
