ADAS calibration is the process of aligning the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in a vehicle so that their sensors and cameras function properly. This is important because any physical changes to the car, such as a windshield replacement, can cause ADAS sensors to malfunction. ADAS calibration involves connecting a scan tool to the vehicle and parking the car in front of a series of targets for a static calibration test, or taking the vehicle for a drive for a dynamic calibration test. Manufacturers are pushing repair shops to calibrate ADAS devices to ensure that their customers are safe on the roads.

Vehicle module and radar coding and programming involve coding or programming an ECU to control the sensors and modules in a vehicle. This is important for making sure that the sensors and modules are working properly and communicating with each other. The process involves connecting a scan tool to the vehicle, which allows the technician to access the ECU and program different parameters. This can include setting parameters such as speed limits, cruise control settings, and lane departure warnings. Vehicle module and radar coding and programming can also involve variant coding, which is a process to ensure that a new sensor or module is properly coded and programmed before it is installed in a vehicle.

Vehicle diagnostics is the process of connecting a scan tool to a vehicle's on-board computer to diagnose and troubleshoot any issues with the vehicle's system. This process involves connecting the scan tool to the vehicle's diagnostic port, which allows the technician to access the vehicle's computer and read the codes that are stored in the computer's memory. This allows the technician to determine what systems are malfunctioning and the possible causes of the issue. Vehicle diagnostics also involves inspecting the vehicle visually, testing the components, and running a series of tests to isolate the problem.
