Identify Vehicle Options/Features Steps

• Identify Vehicle ADAS Option’s Content and Features using a Check List and/or
  

• Visual verification
• OEM Build Data Sheet (if Available)
• Repair Procedures (If OEM Procedures are Available)
• This includes identifying pre-existing and nonrelated damage.
• Blueprint Vehicle for repairs including visual inspection for ADAS, Disassembly, then creating a Repair Plan

Identify Vehicle Options/Features Documentation

• Document Vehicle ADAS Options
• Document Vehicle Features/Options
• Document OEM Build Data Sheet (Date, Time, Personnel, Source for Download Document)
• Document OEM service information (Date, Time, Personnel, Source for Download Document)

This is critical information that is not easily captured.

Repair Steps 

• Identify the tasks that need to be completed and determine who is going to complete the work.
  
• Identify if and what Calibrations are Needed, (ADAS & Non-ADAS Calibrations)
• Evaluate the State of Reassembly Needed for Calibrations and Document
• Identify Required Inspections
  
• Start/Continue Repair
• Evaluate the State of Reassembly needed for calibration.  Some components may need to remain exposed for calibration procedures (installing bumper covers, grills may prohibit needed access to ADAS components).
• Complete repairs include reassembly, Alignment, any mechanical adjustments following OEM Repair Procedures.

Scan Vehicle after Reassembly

• Assess and Address Any Diagnostic Codes

Documentation of Scan Vehicle after Reassembly

Initialization and Programming and Module Setup Steps

• Complete initialization, programming and module setup using the OEM Procedures.  The steps may be performed with a scan tool attached, and DTCs addressed while this step is happening.
• Clear DTC codes
  

Post-Repair Scan Steps 

Pre-Requisite for Calibration Steps

• Retrieve Calibration Procedures from OEM
• Identify Calibration Prerequisites
• All vehicle repairs have been completed with vehicle completely reassembled and drivable.
• Exception:  Check SI for conditions that may require access to sensors for adjustment during calibration such as bumper covers or access panels.
• Any module programming required for repairs is complete
• After module replacement or required by manufacturer due to recalls/ or service bulletin requirements.
• Any required base calibrations required from repairs such as steering angle, Yaw/ulti-axis, ride height, calibrations have been complete.
  
• (Post Scan) All system diagnostic DTC check and/or code clearing as needed is complete.
• Note if DTCs remain analyze DRCs relationship to ADAS functionality and perform further diagnosis/repairs needed.
• Note it may be necessary to do a 2nd post scan after calibration to clear any DTCs that may be set due to calibration process.  (Many systems set a history calibration incomplete DTC or implausible data DTCs in other modules while calibration is taking place)
• Review manufacturer specific service information for any calibrations requirements by year/make and model and system being calibrated are addressed and completed.
  
• Refer to manufacture specific service information.
• Confirm tire size is correct for vehicle and all tire sizes are uniform for vehicle.
  
• Tire pressures are set to specification.
• Verify Tire pressure sensors are functional, and any required tire pressure position relearns, or initialization are complete.
• On some system calibrations, TPMS malfunctions are DTCs may electronically prevent calibration commands from scan-tool Tire pressures are set to specification.
• OEM Weight specifications are meet.
• Vehicle is cleared of excess owner weight.
• Fuel and fluids are full to OEM specifications.
• Vehicle ride height has not been altered and set to specification.
  
• If vehicle modifications have been made (tie/wheel size, lifted/lowered) verify manufacture supported programming or adjustments related to ADAS functions have been addressed.
• If any repairs require vehicle alignment, alignment must be completed prior to calibration.
  
• Above bullet points are required for a proper vehicle alignment.
• Alignment check is highly recommended for most ADAS calibrations.
• Verify any added accessories such as bug deflectors, cattle guards, window tint, stickers or vehicle wraps do not obstruct ADAS sensors inputs (camaras, radar/lidar components) in any way.
• Identify Tools & Qualified Personnel 
  

• The same process follows for sublet; a health scan can be an added step.

Dynamic and Static Calibrations Steps 

• Perform the calibrations needed per OEM Procedures
• Multiple calibrations might be necessary.
• Typically, the scan tool is required and would remain connected to confirm calibration is completed.
• On glass replacement the adhesive specifications may require it to be adequately cured to prevent slippage and throw off calibration.
  

Road Test Steps

• ADAS features can be found in Build Sheet or Owners Manual.
• Perform Dynamic System Verification (DSV).
• Perform Road Test.
• Repair facility should have an agreement with the personnel performing the test drive and receive adequate documentation to prove it completed correctly.
• Document Personnel and Date & Time of Test Drive and Results
  

Final Scan Steps

• Document DTCs (Document Scan Results) - Virtual Printout (*.pdf, *.jpg, etc.) of all the DTCs and all the modules tested.
• Review and Research DTCs
  
• Research means to identify what is related and not related to the damage/repair and defining corrective remedies, which includes OEM Service information.
• Notify Owner for all related and non-related DTC's.
• Go back to Post-Repair Scan steps  
• Clean Scan and Calibration
• QC and Detail Vehicle

Return Vehicle to Owner Steps

• When vehicle has clean scan, calibrated and passes all ADAS functional test, the car can be returned to the owner.
• Review ADAS Features with Owner, Document and Inform Owner ADAS Systems set to OEM Specifications
  

Return Vehicle to Owner Documentation

• Document Date of Return
