Practical guidance
Why calibration may form part of the job.
Many modern vehicles use a camera mounted near the rear-view mirror for lane, sign, collision-warning or emergency-braking functions. Removing and replacing the windscreen may require the camera system to be calibrated in line with the vehicle requirements.
The correct process depends on the manufacturer, model, system and equipment. Some vehicles use static targets, some require a dynamic road procedure and others use a combination. Warning lights are not the only indicator of whether calibration is required.
- ✓ Mention all cameras and sensors
- ✓ Ask whether calibration is required
- ✓ Keep any calibration report
- ✓ Report warning messages promptly
What to consider
Clear answers before work begins.
Every vehicle and piece of glass is different. These are the main points we check when planning the job.
Fit correct glass
The bracket, optical area and windscreen specification must suit the vehicle.
Confirm calibration
The required procedure and any documentation should be agreed as part of the job.
Frequently asked questions
Useful things to know.
Does every replacement need ADAS calibration?
No. It depends on the vehicle and equipment, but camera-equipped vehicles must be checked against the relevant requirements.
Can I tell from a warning light?
Not reliably. A system may require calibration without displaying an obvious dashboard warning.
