Vehicle Direction Alert Alarm Warning Module Calibration

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Buick Verano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The vehicle departure alert alarm warning system will require a recalibration procedure after replacing the module or the windshield. This is a self-calibration procedure, which starts after the SPS Configuration and Setup is done.

Operate the vehicle in the following conditions until the green indicator illuminates:

Clean windshield
Lane departure warning system is ON
Maintain vehicle speeds of 56 km/h (35 MPH) or more.
Drive on clear, plane stretch of straight road.
Drive during the daytime.
Ensure the road contains visible references (well defined lane markings, curbs, guard rails, fences, buildings, etc.).
Avoid lane change

When the calibration is complete, the green lane assist indicator will illuminate in the instrument cluster, if well defined lane markings was seen and the vehicle speed was greater than 60 km/h (37 MPH), then the system is ready to assist.

One or more of the following conditions may increase the length of time required to complete the self-calibration procedure:

Operating the vehicle at 31-61 km/h (19-38 MPH)
Curves in roadway
Driving through snow or fog, driving at night, or driving directly into the sun
Botts' Dots type lane markings
Poor contrast lane markings
Mountain roads
Heavy traffic

Conditions that will prevent completion of the self-calibration procedure:

Operating the vehicle at less than 31 km/h (19 MPH)
No visible lane markings
