Code Clearing

Prepare Your ADAS System for Accurate Calibration Before performing an ADAS calibration, it’s essential to start with a clean slate. At Advanced Safety Calibrations, we clear all possible diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) prior to calibration. This ensures that the vehicle’s safety systems are free from unnecessary errors or “false flags” that could interfere with the calibration process.

Why Code Clearing Matters

Vehicles equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) rely on multiple sensors and modules to work together seamlessly. Over time, or after a repair, these modules can store error codes that may no longer be relevant. If left unaddressed, these codes can:

  • Cause inaccurate calibration results
  • Mask real issues that need correction
  • Lead to system warnings or malfunctions after calibration

By clearing all possible codes, we remove these obstacles and guarantee that every calibration reflects the vehicle’s true ADAS condition.

Our Process

  • Review Diagnostic Scan – We identify all active and stored codes from the vehicle’s ADAS systems.
  • Clear Codes – When possible, we clear existing codes to eliminate false errors.
  • Verify System Readiness – We ensure the system is reset and ready for precise calibration.
  • Move to Calibration – With codes cleared, the ADAS calibration process begins on a solid foundation.
