Front Radar Calibration & Programming
Professional calibration for adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, and autonomous emergency braking systems.
What is Front Radar Calibration?
Front radar systems are essential components of modern ADAS technology. Located behind the front grille or bumper, these sensors detect vehicles, pedestrians, and objects in your path to enable critical safety features.
After a collision repair, bumper replacement, wheel alignment, or suspension work, the radar sensor's aim can be affected. Professional calibration ensures the radar accurately detects objects at the correct distance and angle.
Important: An improperly calibrated front radar can cause false alerts, delayed braking, or failure to detect obstacles.
Systems We Calibrate
-
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Maintains safe following distance automatically
-
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
Alerts driver of potential front-end collisions
-
Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)
Automatically applies brakes to prevent collision
-
Pedestrian Detection
Detects pedestrians and cyclists in vehicle path
When Do You Need Front Radar Calibration?
Calibration is required after any event that may affect sensor alignment
After Collision Repair
Any front-end collision, even minor fender benders, can misalign radar sensors.
Bumper or Grille Replacement
Radar sensors are typically mounted in the bumper or behind the grille.
Suspension Work
Changes to ride height or suspension geometry affect sensor aim.
Wheel Alignment
Thrust angle changes can affect radar detection accuracy.
Radar Module Replacement
New sensors require programming and calibration to vehicle specs.
ADAS Warning Lights
Dashboard warnings indicating ACC, FCW, or AEB system faults.
Our Calibration Process
Professional service following OEM specifications
Vehicle Inspection
We verify vehicle specifications, check for related DTCs, and confirm the radar module is functioning properly before calibration.
Static Calibration Setup
Using OEM-approved targets and calibration equipment, we set up a precise environment for static calibration procedures.
Calibration & Programming
We perform the calibration procedure using factory scan tools, adjusting radar aim and sensitivity to OEM specifications.
Verification & Testing
Post-calibration testing confirms proper operation. We clear DTCs and verify all ADAS functions are working correctly.
All Makes & Models
We provide front radar calibration for all major vehicle manufacturers
