I-CAR · September 6, 2023 · Honda, Acura

Summary

This article highlights the critical requirement to inspect the mounting position and angle of the millimeter wave radar sensor on Honda and Acura vehicles. If the mounting bracket is damaged or out of its horizontal auto-aiming range, the system will store failure information and calibration cannot be completed.

What to do on the job

Perform a millimeter wave radar mounting position inspection to ensure the sensor is perfectly level and undamaged before attempting the calibration procedure.

How to use it

Use this document to justify the labor time required to inspect and verify the physical mounting angle of the radar sensor prior to calibration, especially when troubleshooting a failed calibration or when the front bumper area has sustained structural or cosmetic damage.
