ADAS features are those handy systems that make driving safer and easier, like sensors that beep when you’re backing up or cameras that help you stay in your lane. These systems rely on precise calibration to function properly, and many of their sensors are mounted right on your windscreen.
When your windscreen is damaged and needs to be replaced, those sensors might get knocked out of alignment. Even a tiny shift can throw off their accuracy. Imagine your lane-keeping system thinking you’re drifting when you’re not or your collision warning missing a potential hazard that’s not a risk anyone wants to take.
When You Bring Your Car To On Point For Windscreen Work, We Make Sure To Handle Your ADAS Recalibration With Care.
Here’s A Quick Look At How It Works:
1- Assessing Your Vehicle: First, we check what ADAS features your car has
Different manufacturers use different setups, so it’s all about understanding your specific system.
2- Precise Replacement: If your windscreen needs replacing, we ensure the
new one is installed with exact precision. The mounting and positioning of the glass are critical for the sensors to work correctly.
3- Recalibration Begins: Once the new windscreen is in place, it’s time to
recalibrate the ADAS. This can involve:
Static Calibration: This happens in our workshop using specialized equipment to reset the system. Your car stays stationary while we adjust the sensors and cameras.
Dynamic Calibration: For some vehicles, this step requires driving the car in real-world conditions to fine-tune the system while it’s in use.
4- Final Testing: After recalibration, we test everything to ensure your ADAS
features are functioning just as they should accurate and reliable.
Skipping or skimping on ADAS recalibration isn’t just a bad idea; it’s a safety risk. Misaligned sensors can give false readings or fail altogether, putting you and others on the road in danger.
