This course is tailored for technicians currently working in the automotive industry who need to identify and understand Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) components, as well as the operational characteristics of the systems commonly found in today’s modern light vehicles
COURSE DETAILS
As modern vehicles become increasingly equipped with ADAS, a thorough understanding of these technologies is essential for ensuring safe, effective, and compliant repairs. These systems—such as autonomous emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and parking sensors—play a vital role in vehicle safety and driver assistance.
This course is tailored specifically for technicians in the automotive industry who are involved in the repair, estimation, and assessment of accident-damaged vehicles and/ or faulty components. Understanding the function and placement of ADAS components is crucial, particularly after a collision, where even minor impacts can affect sensor alignment and camera calibration.
Recalibration after an accident is not optional—it’s critical. Failure to properly calibrate ADAS systems post-repair may result in system malfunction, inaccurate readings, or complete inoperability of key safety features, putting both the driver and others at risk. Additionally, incorrect calibration can expose repairers to liability and compromise the reputation of the repair business.
Through this course, participants will gain the knowledge to:
- Recognise which ADAS features require recalibration.
- Understand the methods and tools required for proper calibration.
- Identify when specialist services are necessary.
- Ensure all ADAS functions are restored to manufacturer standards following repairs.
THIS COURSE IS IDEAL FOR:
- Panel Beaters
- Damage Assessors
- Body Shop Managers
- Repair Coordinators
- Light/ Heavy Vehicle technicians
COURSE BENEFITS
- Understanding the importance of ADAS awareness.
- Reduce the risk of post-repair system failure.
- Ensure vehicle safety and compliance.
- Build confidence in discussing ADAS-related repairs with customers and insurers.
- Improve repair accuracy and reduce liability.
