Preliminary Work For Calibration

The vehicle must be on a secure, level surface to perform the calibration. No persons may be in the vehicle interior during the measurement. Vehicle must not be moved during the measurement, opening and closing of vehicle doors is to be avoided. Check the camera image inside the vehicle to make sure all the calibration device markings can be seen clearly and that there is no light or reflections interfering with them.

-- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

All instructions and information on this work procedure can be found in [For transmission(s) 02E, 02Q, 09M] [For engine(s) CNNA, BLV, CCTA, CBFA] General Information .

-- Move the steering angle sensor -G85- into the 0 position (wheels straight ahead).

-- Switch the ignition on and engage the reverse gear (the pivoting emblem in the rear lid pivots upward and the rear view camera activates).

8. Left-Side Angle Bracket For Mounting Measuring Unit For Distance Measurement
9. Calibration Tool For Lane Changing Assist VAS 6350/4
   • Distance between the angled brackets on the calibration device (item:  3 or item:  8) and the paddles on the rear wheel center wheel mounts: 1.2 m - 1.7 m (4 - 5.5 ft.) -dimension A-.

-- Install 3 wheel bolt adapters into the holes "112" for the wheel pick-ups.

-- Attach the paddles on both wheel center sensors and secure them with locking nuts.

-- Place the wheel center sensor on the wheel bolts on the rear wheels. When doing this, the wheel pick-ups are positioned by the O-rings in the adapters and held in place.

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

Make sure that the paddle is easily accessible.

-- Position the calibration device VAS 6350/4 behind the vehicle with a distance of 1.2 m to 1.7 m (4 - 5.5 ft.) between the angled brackets on the calibration device and the paddles at the rear wheel center wheel mounts as shown in the overview illustration -dimension A-, item:  9.

-- Move the calibration tool in a horizontal position. To do so, twist plastic feet under calibration device so that air bubble in level is located exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-.

-- Turn on the laser on the calibration tool -1- and align the entire calibration tool so that the laser beam -2- is pointed on the center of the rear lid above the VW logo.

-- Turn on the spacing laser VAS 6350/2 for the distance measurement using the ON  button. The following display appears and laser switches itself on:

-- Hold distance laser for distance measurement -2- flush into angle bracket on one side of calibration device as shown in the illustration, distance laser must make contact firmly on angle bracket when doing this.

If this is not the case, paddles must be corrected accordingly via clamping screws on the wheel pick-ups.

-- Hold the distance laser for distance measurement firmly by the hand in the angle bracket on the measuring device while the laser beam can be seen on the paddle. Briefly press the ON  button for the distance measurement. When doing this, the following display appears on screen:

The distance measurement is specified on the display in "meters".

-- Write down the value.

-- Repeat this measurement on the other side of the calibration tool in the same way for the other rear wheel.

The distance value must be the same on both sides. If the value is not identical, adjust the calibration device until the values on both sides are identical and the distances between them is 1.2 - 1.7 m ((4 - 5.5 ft.).

When aligning the calibration device, make sure the distance laser beam still strikes the center above the VW emblem and the indicator on the level is still centered. Adjust if necessary.

The dimension for distance that was measured must be entered during calibration into the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in "millimeters".

Rear View Camera System, Calibrating

-- Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

All instructions and information on this work procedure can be found in [For transmission(s) 02E, 02Q, 09M] [For engine(s) CNNA, BLV, CCTA, CBFA] General Information .

-- Select "Guided Fault Finding" in the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.

-- Using the "Go to" button, select the "function/component selection" and the following menu options in sequence:

• Body
• electrical system
• 01 - On Board Diagnostic capable system
• Rearview Camera System
• Functions rear view camera
• Perform a rear view camber calibration

From here, you will be directed by the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester during the calibrating procedure.
