Driver Assistance Systems Calibration Ballymena
If you live in or near Ballymena and your car has driver assistance systems, then you may need calibration. Think back – when was the last time that you had driver assistance systems calibration? Ballymena drivers have sometimes been driving their car for years without checking whether the systems are calibrated, and this is even more so if the car was purchased second hand, as there is no way of knowing what calibration was carried out in the past. For more information, contact McEvoy Motors today. Our team of specialists, based in Carryduff in Northern Ireland (near Ballymena), is ready to help with your driver assistance systems calibration.
What are driver assistance systems?
These are automatic, electronic functions which are built into many modern cars. They provide a greater degree of safety and protection for passengers in the vehicle, by helping the driver to control the car and either informing the driver about a danger or taking action to prevent an accident.
There are many driver assistance systems, but common ones include systems that warn of potential collisions to the front of the car, sensors which indicate that the driver is drifting in the lane, warning lights if a car is alongside the vehicle during lane changes, and automatic braking if there is a car too close in front. The exact driver assistance systems will vary depending on what car you drive.
What is involved in driver assistance systems calibration?
Although there is a range of functions, all work using sensors that collect data. A computer programme analyses the data and provides the warning. Therefore, the whole system relies on accurate information from the sensors. When the car left the factory, the sensors were perfectly aligned. However, with time they can become misaligned or uncalibrated. Bumps, cold weather and other wear and tear could cause movement in the sensor, for example Being misaligned by only a few degrees could result in inaccurate data and this could prevent you from getting the warning of a dangerous situation. Calibration ensures that everything is reset and readjusted to ensure accurate performance.
Why is calibration important for your driver assistance systems?
Having misaligned or inaccurate driver assistance systems could be dangerous, because it means that Ballymena drivers would have a false sense of security. Carrying out calibration gives Ballymena drivers peace of mind and ensures that they and their passengers are safe on the roads.
