Module Alignment - NAFTA

This procedure must be performed in the following cases:

• Removing / installing the radar sensor
• Warning light indicated the failure of the radar sensor proximity
• Rear axle adjustments
• Removing / installing the front end.

Preparation Measure  - The following steps must be performed before beginning the control and adjustment of the sensor / proximity radar:

• Check the inflation pressure of the tires and, if necessary, correct it.
• Make sure the steering wheel is centered.
• Check that there is at least 120 cm +/ - 5 cm in front of the vehicle for space to setup the sensor.
• The floor can have an angle of maximum inclination of 3 ° downhill or an uphill maximum inclination of 1 °.

3. Assemble the alignment tool following the instructions included in the shipping container.
4. Once the tool is properly assembled, set it aside while performing the measurement procedure.

5. Find the center of each wheel and with the plumb bob mark the floor for each wheel. The plumb bob must be the same distance out from each wheel/tire.

6. Use the chalk line to snap a line on both the left and right side of the vehicle along the marks made with the plumb bob in the previous step. Extend the line that is snapped at least 150 cm in front of the center of the front wheels. This will allow room to properly position the alignment tool.

7. Remove the trim cover for the alignment sensor.

8. Find the horizontal center of the sensor and use the plumb bob to mark the location on the floor.

9. Measure a side chalk line to the sensor horizontal center mark. This will be the same length that the center of the sensor tool will be placed on the front chalk line.
10. Snap a line that is 90° perpendicular to the side chalk lines and that runs through the mark for the sensor horizontal center.

11. Measure and mark a line that is 120cm from the horizontal center of the sensor to a line that is perpendicular to the side chalk lines. This front line will be where the mirror tool will be located, and needs to 120 cm from the sensor.

12. Position the sensor tool with the center lined up with the mark on the front line. Install the laser and align the beam with the chalk line.

14. With the tilt cam in the 0 degree position, adjust the tool until the bubble is in the center of the level.
15. Measure from the horizontal mark on the floor to the vertical center of the sensor.

17. Verify that the laser is still lined up with the front chalk line. Then make sure the bubble is still in the middle of the level with the tilt cam in the 0 degree position.
18. Turn off the laser and remove it from the mirror.
19. Use the scan tool to perform the alignment procedure.

THE SENSOR / RADAR PROXIMITY 

- The calibration procedure involves performing three measurements, each time changing the angle of the reflecting mirror. To adjust the angle, tilt the mirror forward and then turn the tilt cam to the desired position.

• POSITION 1: mirror forward (2 degrees forward)
• POSITION 2: mirror in the middle (0 degrees)
• POSITION 3: mirror back (2 degrees rearward)
