BSD/BCW RADAR VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL ANGLE MEASUREMENT PROCEDURE
1.
Ensure the vehicle is on a flat even surface.
2.
Follow the shop manual to remove the rear bumper.
3.
Use the digital inclinometer to measure the vertical angle from each radar sensor and confirm if it is within specification.
If the vertical angle from both radar sensors are within specification then proceed to the next step to measure the horizontal angle.
4.
Find the center point of the front of the vehicle as illustrated in the picture.
Use the center point of the front Hyundai emblem.
Place masking tape underneath the yellow vertical plumb to prevent scratching the paint when removing the tool from the vehicle body.
NOTICE
