B2007 — Driver Solar Radiation Sensor Out of Range

System: Body  |  Type: Generic (OBD-II Standard)  |  Make: Ford

About B2007

B2007 is a generic (obd-ii standard) body diagnostic trouble code recorded for Ford vehicles. It belongs to the B-prefix family of codes, which covers body, interior, airbag, or comfort-electronics faults.

When B2007 is stored, the module has detected a plausibility fault — the measured value is in the electrical range but is not consistent with expected operating behaviour; and a sensor-related fault — the reported value from the named sensor is out of spec.

Scanning & clearing: Body (B) codes are often stored in the body control module, airbag module, or climate module. A basic OBD-II tool usually will not read body codes — an enhanced or OEM-level scan tool is typically required.

Because B2007 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.

Code Information

The Climate Control Module or Body Control Module monitors the driver side solar radiation sensor input to determine sunload intensity for automatic climate control operation, allowing the system to bias blower speed, temperature setpoint, and air distribution to compensate for solar heat gain through the windshield. DTC B2007 is set when the module detects a sensor signal that is outside the calibrated voltage range for plausible solar radiation levels, either too high or too low for the given operating conditions. The sensor is typically a photo diode mounted in a small dome on top of the da...
