ADAS camera calibration in Ottawa

If your car has a lane keep or collision camera behind the windshield, it needs to be recalibrated after new glass. We also calibrate front radar and blind spot monitors after bumper or body work. In house with an Autel MA600, from $200 and up, plus HST. Some vehicles need more than one calibration; we confirm the price before we start.

Why it matters

Why calibrate after a new windshield?

The camera behind your windshield reads lane lines and the distance to the car ahead. Even a small change in the glass or the camera's mount can throw that reading off. Calibration re-aims the camera so your safety features work the way they should.

01

New windshield installed and the camera remounted.

02

Calibrate

The camera is re-aimed to your vehicle's specs with Autel equipment.

03

Confirm

We check the system reads correctly before you drive away.

Calibration questions

Does my car need ADAS calibration?

If your vehicle has a forward-facing camera for features like lane departure warning, the manufacturer may require calibration after a windshield replacement. We'll check what your vehicle needs and perform the required calibration at our Nepean shop.

Do you calibrate radar and blind spot sensors?

Yes. Front radar (adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking) and blind spot monitors (rear corner radar sensors) usually need calibration after bumper or body work, a wheel alignment, a minor collision or a sensor replacement, or when a driver-assist warning light comes on. Some systems use a static calibration in our shop with targets; others use a dynamic calibration on the road with clear lane lines. From $200 and up, plus HST, confirmed before we start.

How much does camera calibration cost in Ottawa?

From $200 and up, plus HST, done the same visit as your new windshield. Some vehicles need more than one calibration, and we confirm the price before we start.

Is calibration covered by insurance?

Yes, calibration of the camera is covered by your insurance company. It is a necessary service after a windshield is replaced. We do it in house with Autel equipment and include it in the estimate we send your insurer.
