Pre-Scan

To document any pre-existing fault codes. Usually required by insurance and allows technician to determine if there will be any additional work required.

Post Scan

Reviews calibration procedure to determine any fault codes after service was performed. Documents service performed and completed. 

The front camera is used in many ADAS systems, including Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), and Traffic Sign/Signal Recognition (TSR) systems. The camera’s images are then analyzed by supporting software, which triggers a response to improve safety. For example, the response could be automatically initiating emergency braking, alerting the driver that they are drifting out of a lane, or helping them park the car. 

A front radar in a vehicle is a crucial component of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving technology.  It’s primary functions are for collision avoidance, adaptive cruise control (ACC), automatic emergency braking (AEB), pedestrian detection, and cross-traffic alerts (CTA).

Blind spot detection (BSD) is a crucial feature in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) designed to enhance safety by alerting drivers to vehicles or obstacles in their blind spots.  It’s primary functions are for collision prevention, lane change assist assistance, cross-traffic alerts and advanced situational awareness. 

Around View Camera (AVC) systems, also known as 360-degree camera systems, provide a comprehensive view of the vehicle’s surroundings by utilizing multiple cameras positioned around the vehicle. These systems offer several functions in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to enhance safety, convenience, and maneuverability. The primary functions provided by around view camera systems in ADAS are parking assistance, obstacle detection, improved visibility.

Park sensors, also known as parking sensors or proximity sensors, are components of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) designed to assist drivers during parking maneuvers.  The primary functions are for obstacle detection, distance warnings, and automatic parking aids.

Overall, correct wheel alignment is crucial in vehicles equipped with ADAS to ensure accurate sensor readings, optimal performance, safety, consistency of results, and long-term reliability. Regular alignment checks and adjustments help maintain the effectiveness of ADAS features and contribute to safe and reliable vehicle operation.

Many ADAS features, such as lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control, rely on sensors that are integrated with the vehicle’s steering system. When the steering system undergoes repairs, adjustments, or replacements, it can affect the alignment and calibration of these sensors. Resetting the steering system allows for recalibration of the sensors to ensure accurate operation of ADAS features.

Seat weight sensors are integral components of occupant detection systems, particularly in vehicles equipped with advanced safety features such as airbags. These sensors determine whether an airbag should deploy and with what force based on the weight of the occupant. After an accident, the structural integrity of the vehicle may be compromised, leading to potential damage or misalignment of the seat weight sensors. Calibration ensures that the sensors accurately detect the presence and weight of occupants, helping to prevent improper deployment or non-deployment of airbags, which could pose safety risks.

Estimate scrubbing is crucial in ADAS repairs to ensure accuracy, transparency, accountability, identification of necessary repairs, quality of repairs, compliance with manufacturer guidelines, and customer satisfaction. It promotes thoroughness and diligence in the repair process, ultimately contributing to the safe and reliable operation of ADAS components in vehicles.  Estimate scrubbing help to insure that ADAS components are restored to their pre-accident condition.

Module programming is essential in ADAS to ensure software updates, compatibility, calibration, configuration, diagnosis, safety, compliance, and addressing recalls or service campaigns. It plays a critical role in maintaining the functionality, performance, and safety of ADAS systems in modern vehicles.

ADAS features, such as rearview cameras or parking assistance systems, rely on sensors or cameras located on or near the rear hatch. Rear hatch initialization ensures that these sensors and cameras are properly calibrated and synchronized with the vehicle’s ADAS systems, allowing for accurate detection of obstacles, pedestrians, or other vehicles in the vicinity of the rear of the vehicle.

ADAS features, such as blind spot monitoring or lane departure warning systems, may rely on sensors or cameras located near the vehicle’s windows. Power window initialization ensures that these sensors and cameras are properly calibrated and synchronized with the vehicle’s ADAS systems, allowing for accurate detection of surrounding objects or vehicles.
