Front View Camera Module Learn: Calibration

For North American SPS users, Calibration will NOT start automatically  and will need to be initiated with GDS2. For European SPS users, Calibration will start automatically  and will not need to be initiated with GDS2.

The calibration process for the front view camera system is necessary when a front view camera module is replaced by a new one. This process is required when only replacing the windshield  and the front view camera module has been mounted again properly. This process shall be completed within 3 - 5 minutes when the correct driving conditions are met. If conditions are not met correct, the front view camera module shall continuously run the service point calibration when the vehicle has been driven above 25 MPH (40 KPH) for at least 30 minutes or until successfully completed. This process shall work across ignition cycles and shall not be required to be re-initialized at start up. If the Lane Departure Warning Switch is pressed during calibration, the indictor will flash momentarily and then stay out - this is normal operation.

The calibration procedure may start automatically after SPS programming is complete.

To calibrate the front camera, operate the vehicle in the following conditions until the calibration is complete:

Calibration Procedure (Required for North American SPS users)

  1. Apply the parking brake.
  2. Place the transmission in Park (if applicable)
  3. Install scan tool

  8. Drive the vehicle to complete calibration.

Shortly after the procedure is complete, the green ready to assist light should turn on as long as all conditions are met for normal operation. The system is then ready to assist.
