Question

you should always reset the alignment value before adjusting the alignment screws holding the radar.

true

false

Explanation:

Analyze the alignment procedure

In Radar Sensor Alignment and ADAS Systems calibration protocols, physical adjustments of the alignment screws are performed to correct the sensor's physical orientation. The alignment values (or calibration offsets) stored in the vehicle's computer (such as the DIU or ADAS control module) reflect the electronic correction factor.

Determine the correct sequence

Resetting the stored alignment values in the software must be done before physically turning the adjustment screws. If you do not reset the electronic alignment values first, the system will base its new calculations on the old, incorrect offset, leading to an inaccurate physical calibration. Therefore, resetting the alignment value prior to physical screw adjustment is the correct, standard procedure.

Answer:

• True (Correct answer)
• False
