FIGURE 35 - LATERAL ALIGNMENT VERIFICATION

Laser Light Line

NOTE: The lateral alignment also can be checked with

Bendix ACom

®

Diagnostics (version 6.3 or higher). A

value between -0.8° and 0.8 ° is acceptable and the
system should operate normally. A value between
-0.8° to -1.3° OR 0.8° to 1.3° means the radar sensor is
misaligned and system performance will be degraded.
The service technician should align the radar sensor
using the procedures noted in this section.

If the value is less than (<) -1.3°, or greater than
(>) 1.3°, the system will typically issue a Diagnostic
Trouble Code. The service technician should align
the radar sensor laterally. A positive value means the
radar sensor should be aligned toward the driver side.
A negative value means the radar sensor should be
aligned towards the passenger side. The vehicle must
be driven at least 20 miles between adjustments. See
“Alignment Value” in Figure 17.

6.10 LATERAL ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE

NOTE: Complete these steps only if a vertical adjustment
is necessary.
1. Loosen the four lateral position screws. DO NOT fully

remove them. See Figure 36.

screws. Use steps 4 through 7 in Section 6.09: Check
Lateral Alignment

section to measure.

3 Retighten the four lateral position screws to hold the

desired alignment in place.

4. Recheck the lateral alignment as described above.
5. After the lateral alignment procedure is complete, if

there is an active misalignment DTC (codes 55, 56, or
57), reset the alignment value using the procedure in
Section 6.11.

cover. Ensure the cover is secure over the radar sensor
assembly before driving the vehicle.
