Vertical Alignment

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.
