Side Assist, Calibrating

The left Lane Change Assistance Control Module (J769) (master) or right Lane Change Assistance Control Module 2 (J770) (slave) is combined into one unit with the radar sensor for the respective side. They are located behind the rear bumper cover and must be calibrated after:

removal and installation of the bumper cover

removal and installation of one or both lane change assistance control modules

each time the installation location of a lane change assistance control module is changed

Before the calibration procedure can be performed with the Vehicle Diagnosis, Testing and Information System (VAS 5051B), considerable preparation work must be performed --> [ Preliminary Work for Calibration ].

when installed correctly, vehicle electrical system voltage line must be connected at bottom left of calibration device (as seen in direction of travel)

Preliminary Work for Calibration

Before the calibration procedure can be performed with the Vehicle Diagnosis, Testing and Information System, considerable preparation work must be performed.

Requirements:

Place vehicle on a solid, level surface

Activate parking brake - vehicle must not move during measurement

Place front wheels in straight-ahead position - steering wheel in 0 position

On vehicles with air suspension, set vehicle height to middle position (display in instrument cluster display)

Remove sticker with metal foil from bumper cover if necessary

No persons may be in the vehicle interior during the measurement

Do not open and close the vehicle doors during calibration

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Vehicle Diagnostic, Testing and Information System with diagnostic cable (VAS 5051/5 A)

Calibration Device (VAS 6350)

- Connect Vehicle Diagnosis, Testing and Information System (VAS 5051B) with Diagnostic Cable (VAS 5051/5 A).

If a malfunction indication is displayed --> Operating instructions of (VAS 5051B).

- Switch on ignition.

- Secure three SW 19 wheel bolt adapters for wheel bolts on each Wheel Center Sensor (VAS 6350/1).





- Insert measuring paddle on both wheel center sensors (VAS 6350/1) and secure with lock nut.

- Place Wheel Center Sensor (VAS 6350/1) on wheel bolts on both rear wheels.

Wheel center sensor rotation center must be in wheel rotation center.

Place Wheel Center Sensor (VAS 6350/1) on wheels so that "anti-theft wheel bolts" are not connected with wheel center sensor.

- Adjust measuring paddle with aid of lock nuts so that they move freely just above the floor.

The measuring paddles must move easily.

The measuring paddles must be vertical.

- Position Calibration Device (VAS 6350) at distance - a - from rear wheels.





Dimension - a - = 1700± 0.08 in.

- Switch distance laser (VAS 6350/2) on with ON button.





Display on (VAS 6350/2):

"- - - m"

Laser is switched on at same time.

- Hold the distance laser (VAS 6350/2) - 2 - flush against the catch bracket, as shown in the illustration, for the distance measurement.





The distance laser (VAS 6350/2) lie firmly against catch bracket.

- Ensure "laser beam" for distance measurement hits the lower enlarged portion of the measuring paddle - 1 -.

If this is not the case, measure paddle height must be corrected using lock nuts on Wheel Center Sensor (VAS 6350/1).

- Briefly press ON button for distance measurement.





Display on (VAS 6350/2):

"1.700 m" (specified value: 1700 ± 2 mm).

- Repeat measurement procedure from left catch bracket to measurement paddle on left rear wheel.

The distance value must be the same on both sides.

If both measured values are not the same, adjust Calibration Device (VAS 6350) accordingly.

- Secure lane change assistance calibration device (VAS 6350/4) at left rear of Calibration Device (VAS 6350) mount.





When installed correctly, vehicle electrical system voltage line must be connected at bottom left of calibration device (as seen in direction of travel).

Dimension - a - = 850 mm (measured from upper edge of calibration device to workshop floor).

- The adjustment dimension is set with the measuring point - arrow - on the base of the calibration device on the scale of the steel ruler - 1 -.

Left setting = 30.43 in (read on measurement scale - 1 -).

- Connect lane change assistance calibration device (VAS 6350/4) to vehicle electrical system voltage.

- Using the bubble level (level indicator) - arrow -, bring the Calibration Device (VAS 6350) into a horizontal position by turning the plastic bases.





- Put on "Laser eye protection".





- Switch Line Laser (VAS 6350/3) on Calibration Device (VAS 6350) on.

- Align the entire Calibration Device (VAS 6350) so that the laser beam shines on the center of the vehicle rear above the VW logo.

- Check right and left distance between catch bracket on Calibration Device (VAS 6350) and measuring paddle - 1 - on wheel sensors again.





Specified value: 1700 ± 0.08 in
