Cruise Control: Adjustments

Cruise Control Module (C-CM) (with Sensor) Adjustment

Vertical Alignment

NOTE: In order to align the Cruise-Control Module (C-CM), which is a radar sensor unit, the vehicle must be in a wheel alignment bay station so that the vehicle is level.

NOTE: Damage to the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) bracket may affect correct alignment. When aligning the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module), inspect the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) bracket for damage and repair as necessary before carrying out the alignment procedure.

NOTE: If the front bumper cover has already been removed because of module replacement, there is no need to carry-out the first 2 steps.

1. Remove the front lower air deflector.

2. NOTE: When removing the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor fascia cover retaining nut, make sure the cover stud is held with pliers to prevent twisting the stud off the cover.
Remove the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor fascia cover retaining nut and cover.






3. Place the vehicle on a wheel alignment bay station.

4. Locate the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor alignment screw.





5. Place a combination square level on the face of the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor unit and check alignment.





6. Keeping the combination square level on the face of the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor unit, adjust the pitch of the sensor by using an E5 inverted Torx(R) bit to adjust the screw until the sensor is vertical and level.





7. NOTE: Prior to installing the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor fascia cover or front bumper cover, clean and remove any debris on the front or back of the cover.
Install the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor fascia cover and retaining nut or front bumper cover.


Horizontal Alignment

NOTE: The horizontal alignment for the cruise control sensor is a software calibration. No manual adjustment is needed for this procedure. The scan tool calibrates the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) radar sensor unit through the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) calibration procedure.

1. NOTICE: The engine must be running during the horizontal alignment procedure. Failure to leave the engine running throughout the entire procedure results in the cancellation of the alignment procedure and the system remains non-functional.

Start the engine.


2. Follow the scan tool on-screen instructions to carry-out the C-CM (Cruise-Control Module) calibration procedure.
- Follow the operating instructions shown on the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS).

- After completion of the test, verify that the test completed successfully.

- Follow the prompts to drive the vehicle after successful completion of the test. This may take several minutes.
