The invention provides an engine compartment lighting system. The system comprises a power supply, a lighting device, a sunlight sensor, an engine hood lock closing and opening sensor and a control device, wherein the lighting device is arranged in an engine compartment; the sunlight sensor is used for detecting the intensity of external light; the engine hood lock closing and opening sensor is used for detecting the closing and opening information of a engine compartment cover; the control device is connected with the sunlight sensor, the engine hood lock closing and opening sensor and the lighting device and used for receiving the intensity of external light and the closing and opening information of the engine compartment cover, and when the intensity of external light is lower than the preset value and the engine compartment cover is opened, the lighting device is started. When a vehicle is in failure and the engine compartment cover is opened, and if the intensity of external light is lower than the preset value, the lighting device can be automatically started to light the engine compartment. The automatic opening in the embodiment can reduce the work load of maintainers, simultaneously greatly facilitate the maintaining of the maintainers, and provide reliable lighting for maintaining work.
