ADAS WS PRR

More than 4 million vehicles on the road today are fitted with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) such as autonomous emergency braking, lane departure and keep lane systems, adaptive cruise control and parking assist. ADAS adoption by manufactures is growing and as of 2016 any new vehicle will require a minimum of two ADAS systems fitted to qualify for a 5 Star NCAP Safety Rating.

WHY CALIBRATE ADAS

ADAS calibration is required whenever a sensor’s aim is disturbed in anyway. This can occur as a result of collision or be a result of common repair work such as windshield replacement, suspension repairs or wheel alignment. If this ADAS system isn’t calibrated this can affect the operation of the system, send wrong information to safety systems or shut down all together. ■ Millions of vehicles on the road have ADAS and this number is growing ■ Common repair work can affect the ADAS operation

■ ADAS systems working incorrectly or shutting down all together ■ Calibration is required to restore to manufactures guidelines

With ADAS systems becoming more popular having the capability within your business to complete repair work from start to finish without having to rely on expensive subcontracting and increased customer waiting time is key to growing your business. BENEFITS ■ Services you offer customers will be greatly increased ■ Ability to provide first fix resolutions ■ Increased revenue streams for your workshop ■ Avoid losing your customer to another garage

DID YOU KNOW More than 4 million vehicles on the road today in the UK and Ireland are fitted with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) such as Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB). That’s over 10% of the car parc! Thatcham Research has issued a position to enable the automotive industry to efficiently and safely repair ADAS: If ADAS sensors, or parts that are in proximity to ADAS sensors, are included in a repair specification, calibration post repair must be completed to confirm sensors are functioning to the vehicle manufacturers’ specified tolerances.

In addition vehicle repairers should: ■ Assess for the presence of ADAS sensors and record the outcome clearly. ■ Research and seek guidance from relevant repair methods and calibration instructions. ■ Ensure all calibration activities are completed by currently competent technicians. ■ Complete system calibration in accordance with the relevant repair method / instruction. ■ Be able to demonstrate that the calibration of all affected sensors has been completed and that the results of the calibration confirms functionality within the vehicle manufacturer’s specified tolerance – unless stated otherwise in the repair specification. ■ Where no specific repair guidance exists, and functionality cannot be proven through systemised calibration, then advice should be sought from the vehicle manufacturer’s dealership network and appropriate action taken prior to vehicle release. ■ If vehicle manufacturer information states dynamic calibration, this should be completed and confirmed prior to vehicle release.
