Adaptive Cruise Control, Calibration Information

When must it be calibrated?

It must be calibrated if:

The lock carrier was removed and installed.

The adaptive cruise control (ACC) sensor (G550) was removed and installed.

If toe and/or rear axle camber was adjusted during a vehicle alignment.

What test requirements must be fulfilled for calibration?

Previously performed vehicle alignment or wheel run-out compensation.

Specified values for tire pressure and height are checked.

Adaptive Cruise Control, Calibrating during Vehicle Alignment

Observe the following work sequence!

- Observe the notes in your alignment unit. Refer to => [ Adaptive Cruise Control, Calibration Information ].

Measuring Procedure





Space Requirements in Front of Vehicle





- a - = 1145 mm ± 5 mm

Distance - a - is distance between Automatic Cruise Control (ACC) sensor (G550) mirror and ACC adjustment tool (VAS 6041) / adjustment tool (VAS 6430) measuring field

If necessary, use precision spoiler adapter (V.A.G 1813/12) to equalize height between ACC adjustment tool (VAS 6041) / adjustment tool (VAS 6430)and vehicle alignment platform.

VW Emblem, Removing





- Guide a screw driver through opening - arrow A - and press tab - arrow B - downward.

- Remove VW emblem.

Automatic Cruise Control (ACC) Sensor Adjusting Screw Identification





1. Horizontal or measuring block 6-2 adjusting screw

2. Vertical or measuring block 6-3 adjusting screw

3. must not be turned - functions only as a pivot point

Explanation of Axles and Display in VAS 505X





Y Measuring block 6-2
Z Measuring block 6-3

Example:

Value 0.1 corresponds to 4 mm on (VAS 6041/2) and/or (VAS 6430)

With a measuring block 6-2, display in VAS 505X shows a value of 0.6 and measuring block 6-3 a value of -1.0.

These values lead to a measuring point - arrow - that consists of the following values:

- a - = 24 mm

- b - = 40 mm

Menu in VAS 505X:

- Press the following buttons on the screen one after the other:

Suspension

Distance Control

01 - On Board Diagnostic (OBD) Capable Systems

Functions

Adaption to adjustment on alignment stand

Follow the instructions on the screen to perform the basic setting.
