Front Camera Calibration after Bumper install

[BIC JET]

Anyone have the directions or thoughts on how I could do this. It was fine for a while, but the ARB bumper moves the camera to the grill area above and to the starboard side a little. My cruise control picks up any vehicle in the slow lane and tries to slow me down. It s PITA for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know ARB relos the camera to the right but that should not affect the adaptive cruise control as that radar sensor is behind the grill sombrero emblem.

Good info, thanks a bunch. I'll go clean it off real good. Lots of bug splatter lately. Is there an obvious lens in the sombrero that I shoudl pay special attention to?

The actual radar sensor is the black box looking thing mounted right behind the sombrero. I don’t think there is any kind of “lens” but it’s position and any angle up, down or sideways affects where the radar beam goes. Yours might be pointed more right than it should be. There is a calibration procedure in the FSM but it’s a little complicated and I think requires some kind of special targets. A Dealer can do this for you. My dealer initially refused to calibrate it due to my aftermarket bumper and lift. It’s the lift that makes dealers not want to touch the radar cruise for liability reasons.

I’d be tempted to just mess with the adjustment screws and with trial and error see if you can make it better.

Thanks. Appreciate that. I’ll get into it and let all know how I ended up dealing with it. Appreciate the help.

I believe there is a camera calibration option in the setup menu of the infotainment but I’m not really sure what it lets you adjust. Take a look, it may help.
