For some ADAS calibrations, the challenges aren’t in the calibrations themselves, but in the details of preparation.
For some ADAS calibrations, the challenges aren’t in the calibrations themselves, but in the details of preparing for them.
As Babcox Media’s Joe Keene shows for this forward-facing camera calibration following a windshield replacement on a Stellantis vehicle, the procedure itself requires little more than driving. But first the technician will need to perform a few necessary tasks, such as ensuring a completed FCA registration. Additionally, prior to driving the vehicle, the technician must select a route that avoids stopping, which will negate the calibration in progress. Internet access must also be maintained throughout the procedure.
When ADAS components are repaired, there are additional steps that need to be taken for the calibrations to be complete.
Merely reprogramming or replacing a particular ADAS component isn’t always enough.
The onscreen guidance of ADASLink eliminates guesswork and ensures a precise and thoroughly documented calibration.
The Torque Link includes Tech 2 Tech remote diagnostics, which allows techs to collaborate on complex repairs.
The FastBlast system is designed to inflate even the most challenging truck and SUV tires.
The council ensures that valid and complete documentation exists for veteran status, ownership and operational control.
With the new connectivity, shop owners will be able to view before and after-cut results for rotors and drums online.
Snap-on lights provide techs illumination in dark spaces.
