When replacing a windshield, calibration is crucial to ensure the vehicle’s sensors operate at the highest fidelity. This is because sensors can become out of calibration due to daily use, changes in temperature, standard vibrations, and when a windshield is being replaced. Calibration involves checking the settings or gradations with a measuring instrument to ensure the camera and sensors are properly aligned and operating correctly.
After a windshield replacement, vehicles with ADAS require a safety system recalibration to ensure that the sensors and camera connected to the windshield continue to work properly and meet all legal requirements. Different vehicle manufacturers require different calibration processes, which will include one of the following: static, dynamic, or dual.
Static recalibration requires using tools and targets and must be performed in controlled conditions with the proper amount of space and lighting in shops, not outside in parking lots. Dynamic recalibration, on the other hand, involves the cameras and sensor systems going through a range of movement to recalibrate the camera system. Some vehicle manufacturers may require both processes outlined above, which is known as dual calibration.
At Houston Mobile Glass, we’re committed to providing the best possible service to our customers. That’s why we offer post-repair scans to ensure that no codes are set in the vehicle and that all systems are verified to be working correctly. Calibration times vary from vehicle to vehicle, and each vehicle has to be recalibrated per manufacturer recommendations. A typical ADAS calibration procedure can last anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours.
In conclusion, when replacing a windshield, it’s essential to ensure that calibration is performed to ensure the vehicle’s sensors operate at the highest fidelity. At Houston Mobile Glass, we’re committed to providing reliable and affordable windshield repair and replacement services, as well as ADAS recalibration for a variety of advanced driver assistance systems.

Chipped or Cracked Glass

Car, Van, Truck, SUV and Semi Windshield Repair
Front windshield damage is the most common issue that impacts drivers. This happens due to the road debris putting dings and divots into the windshield. Sometimes the damage is so small you won’t even realize it until after it starts spreading across the entire windshield. Most state laws require you to repair the damage on your windshield or you will get a ticket.
At Houston Mobile Glass, we understand that cost is a vital factor when choosing auto repair services. This remains true whether your car needs body repairs after a minor collision, or you require a replacement for a damaged windshield. However, when aiming to save on vehicle repairs, safety should never be compromised. That’s why it’s essential to calibrate a windshield after it’s been replaced.
What Does Windshield Calibration Entail?
The process of calibrating a windshield isn’t directly related to the glass itself.
Your windshield might appear as any ordinary glass, but it’s far from normal. Most people are astonished by the advanced technology embedded in many contemporary windshields.
For many vehicles, windshield recalibration involves interaction with the advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) equipment functions.
ADAS features play a vital role in ensuring your safety while driving. This groundbreaking automotive technology encompasses a wide range of components and functions, varying based on your vehicle’s make and model. Some typical ADAS features are:
To operate efficiently, these sophisticated systems need dynamic sensors and cameras installed in and around your car. The data collected by these technologies is relayed to the ADAS, ensuring drivers receive auditory or visual warnings of potential threats. In certain situations, ADAS might temporarily halt the vehicle to prevent accidents or steer it away from danger.
Upon replacing your ADAS windshield, the calibration process fine-tunes the cameras and sensors on the windshield, testing them to guarantee their accurate functioning.
Why Might Your Windshield Need Recalibration?
When technicians need to disconnect or remove ADAS-related components from your windshield to repair or replace the glass, these components must then be reconnected. As these components require perfect alignment for an effective ADAS system, they must be recalibrated according to manufacturer specifications post-repair or replacement.
What Could Occur if You Don’t Calibrate Your Windshield?
Neglecting to recalibrate the ADAS components connected to your windshield when needed could lead to several potential issues:
What is the Duration of ADAS Calibration?
An average on-site calibration generally takes 1-2 hours or more. Sometimes, this can be accomplished during the same visit as your windshield replacement.
The windshield calibration begins with the camera aiming process. Our experts collaborate with your vehicle’s computer to optimize camera alignment, ensuring accuracy. This involves restoring the system to factory settings and testing it to confirm correct calibration.
A technician may need additional time when performing dynamic calibration. During this testing phase, the vehicle must be driven to calibrate the camera. We will inform you if this step is necessary for your specific vehicle.
Almost all glass adhesives allow you to drive shortly after installation. Some adhesives may require an hour-long waiting time.
What is the Cost of Windshield Calibration, and Will Insurance Cover It?
It’s crucial to invest in windshield recalibration when it’s replaced or when repairs could have affected the ADAS functionality. Consult your auto glass technician to determine if windshield calibration is suggested.
