I-CAR · October 7, 2022 · FCA, Stellantis, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram
Summary
This document highlights the requirement by FCA/Stellantis to use a scan tool when removing and installing front bumper covers on vehicles equipped with active air dams. The scan tool is necessary to place the air dam in the full open position prior to bumper removal and to perform a self-learning calibration procedure after reinstallation.
What to do on the job
Use a scan tool to place the active air dam in the full open position before bumper removal, and perform the active aerodynamic system self-learning procedure after installation.
How to use it
Use this document to justify the diagnostic scan tool time required both before and after front bumper cover removal on FCA/Stellantis vehicles equipped with active aerodynamics. It proves that a post-repair calibration ('self-learning procedure') is an OEM-required step to ensure the system operates correctly.
