WHAT WE DO

Ford ADAS Calibration Services

Complete calibration for every Ford safety system - using OEM-approved tools and diagnostics.

Is Your Ford Driving Safely?

ADAS features can be affected by:

  • Lane Keeping Assist drifting off course
  • Forward Collision Warning is triggering incorrectly
  • Parking Assist or Advanced Park not functioning
  • Dashboard warning lights after windscreen replacement or sensor repair
  • Ignoring these issues can compromise safety and increase the risk of accidents. If your Ford is showing any of these signs, professional calibration is essential.

    Don’t compromise your safety

    How Our Ford ADAS Calibration Works

    1. Pre-Calibration Inspection

    Before any calibration begins, technicians carry out a full vehicle inspection including:

  • Scanning all ADAS modules using Ford-approved diagnostic tools (like Ford IDS/FDRS software)

  • Checking for any existing fault codes or warning lights

  • Inspecting cameras, radar sensors, and ultrasonic sensors for physical damage

  • Verifying tyre pressure and wheel alignment are within correct specifications

  • Confirming the vehicle is on a level surface with a full fuel tank

  • 2. Types of Calibration Methods

    Static Calibration

  • The vehicle is parked on a perfect surface level.

  • Specific OEM-approved calibration targets and boards are placed at precise distances in front of and around the vehicle

  • Ford diagnostic software (IDS/FDRS) is connected to the vehicle’s OBD port

  • The system uses the targets to realign:

  • Forward-facing cameras

  • Radar sensors (front and rear)

  • Surround view cameras

  • Blind spot sensors

  • Dynamic Calibration

  • Vehicle is driven on a road at specific speeds (typically 50–100 km/h)

  • Requires clear lane markings on the road

  • The software self-calibrates while driving by reading:

  • Lane markings for Lane Keeping Assist

  • Vehicle distances for Adaptive Cruise Control

  • Surrounding environment for Blind Spot Monitoring

  • Some Ford systems require both static and dynamic calibration to complete fully

  • 3. System-by-System Calibration Process

    Co-Pilot360 Camera (Windscreen-Mounted)

  • Calibration target placed at a measured distance in front of the vehicle

  • Ford IDS software initiates the camera alignment routine

  • Camera adjusts its field of view to factory specifications

  • Dynamic drive test confirms lane detection accuracy

  • Front Radar Sensor (Behind Ford Badge/Bumper)

  • Vehicle centred on an alignment ramp or a level floor

  • Radar alignment target placed directly ahead

  • The diagnostic tool runs a radar beam alignment

  • Verifies detection range and angle for Forward Collision Warning and Adaptive Cruise

  • Blind Spot Radar Sensors (Rear Bumper)

  • Static targets are placed at measured angles beside the vehicle

  • Sensors calibrated for accurate detection zones

  • Cross Traffic Alert and Blind Spot Information System verified

  • Parking Sensors & Surround Cameras

  • Each ultrasonic sensor is tested individually for its detection range

  • 360-degree camera system stitched and aligned for accurate overhead view

  • Advanced Park system verified for automated parking accuracy

  • Lane Keeping Assist & Traffic Sign Recognition

  • Requires dynamic calibration on a road with clear markings

  • System reads lane lines and speed signs to self-adjust

  • Verified for correct steering input and alert timing

  • 4. Post-Calibration Verification

    Once calibration is complete, technicians carry out:

  • Full rescan of all ADAS modules to confirm no fault codes remain

  • Road test to verify real-world system performance

  • Documentation of calibration results for warranty and compliance records

  • Issuing a post-calibration compliance certificate

  • Key Tools Used in Sensing Suite Calibration
