Cruise Control Radar Alignment

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Adjustment 

Vertical Alignment 

NOTE: In order to align the CCM, the CCM cover must be removed to access the sensor and the vehicle must be in a wheel alignment bay station so that the vehicle is level.
NOTE: Damage to the CCM bracket may affect correct alignment. When aligning the CCM, inspect the CCM bracket for damage and repair as necessary before carrying out the alignment procedure.
  1. Place the vehicle on a wheel alignment bay station.
  2. Remove the CCM cover.

  4. Place the combination square level on the face of the CCM and check the alignment. If alignment is required keep the combination square level on the face of the CCM and adjust the pitch by using an E20 Torx ® bit to adjust the screw until the CCM is vertical and level.

  5. NOTE: Prior to installing the front bumper cover, clean and remove any debris on the front or back of the cover.

    Install the front bumper cover.

    Horizontal Alignment 

    NOTE: The horizontal alignment for the CCM is a software calibration. No manual adjustment is needed for this procedure. The scan tool calibrates the CCM through the CCM procedure in programmable parameters.
  6. NOTE: The vehicle's engine must be running during the horizontal alignment procedure. Failure to leave the engine running throughout the entire procedure results in the cancellation of the alignment procedure and the system remains non-functional.

    Start the engine.

  7. Follow the scan tool on-screen instructions to carry-out the CCM calibration procedure located in IDS under Toolbox > Electrical > Cruise Control > CCM Calibration.
