Calibration Research Tips: Ford/Lincoln ADAS Suites
I-CAR · June 9, 2022 · Ford, Lincoln
Summary
This article explains the composition of Ford and Lincoln ADAS suites, including Active Drive Assist, Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, and Lane Centering systems. It details how these suites share inputs from the Cruise Control Module (CCM) radar, the Image Processing Module A (IPMA) camera, and the Driver Status Monitor Camera.
What to do on the job
Identify the specific ADAS suite installed on the Ford or Lincoln vehicle and ensure both the shared camera (IPMA) and radar (CCM) inputs are fully calibrated, as a fault or miscalibration in one sensor will disable multiple interconnected safety systems.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the necessity of calibrating multiple sensors (such as both the front radar/CCM and the windshield camera/IPMA) when a vehicle is equipped with Ford/Lincoln ADAS suites, as these systems share inputs and a failure in one disables the entire suite.
