Vertical Alignment
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
In order to align the Cruise-Control Module (C-CM), which is a radar sensor unit, the vehicle must be in a wheel alignment bay station so that the vehicle is level.
NOTE:
Damage to the C-CM
bracket may affect correct alignment. When aligning the C-CM
, inspect the C-CM
bracket for damage and repair as necessary before carrying out the alignment procedure.
NOTE:
The MKX C-CM
can be accessed without removing the front bumper cover. Edge requires removal of the front bumper cover to access the C-CM
. If the front bumper cover has already been removed because of module replacement, there is no need to carry-out the first 2 steps.
- Remove the front lower air deflector. For additional information, refer to BUMPER - EXPLODED VIEW, FRONT .

NOTE: When removing the C-CM radar sensor fascia cover retaining nut, make sure the cover stud is held with pliers to prevent twisting the stud off the cover.

- Place the vehicle on a wheel alignment bay station.
- Locate the C-CM radar sensor alignment screw.
- Place a combination square level on the face of the C-CM radar sensor unit and check alignment.
- Keeping the combination square level on the face of the C-CM radar sensor unit, adjust the pitch of the sensor by using an E5 inverted Torx® bit to adjust the screw until the sensor is vertical and level.
