Excellent video 📹! Thanks for posting the details of the calibration procedure. Terrible when someone hits your parked car and drives you crazy to try to figure out why suddenly you got a bsm failure mode.
Would've been nice for him to have shown some of the adjusting. Did he adjust the sensor bracket position or something in the software? Are you actually calibrating the sensors or just confirming proper sensor positioning? Some more information would be helpful here.
Excellent video. Do you mind sharing with me the reflector distance on the right and left rear of a lexus Rx350 2015 and also the distance at mid point from the rear. Should my reflector light be pointed towards a dot located on the bsm module
I would need to hook up to your vehicle and enter the calibration procedure for your vehicle to confirm the distance. Once the correct distance is achieved, I center my corner reflector laser to the center of the blind spot module.
Hello, I own a 2022 Toyota Camry Hybrid that was damaged on the rear right side near the BSM module, resulting in a hole. I had the hole repaired at a local body shop, but my BSM sensors are not functioning. What steps do you think I should take? Also, would you like to replace the rear bumper?
Hi ..My BSM sensor is damaged ..need to replaced ..what numbers or codes should be compatible in the new one ..is that very important to copatible ..i get of the same model and year of my car Rav4 2020 hybrid
Why would my drivers side be shorter than my right side on my 2020 Camry? It was fine until I took it to the dealer for an oil change. No dents or marks on bumper. Did you say the sensor starts at 28” inches behind the car??
nope. you need the obd interface, oem or other tool sys and the approved targets. all are expensive as hell. not to mention you have to apply to your pcm which you do NOT want to do without experience and training.
Thank you very much for the very helpful video!!! Are the measurements for Sienna 2015 Limited the same? I've got this car in Ukraine and the dealership has no clue how to set up the targets for calibration.
Sorry for the late response. We moved into a new shop in NW Houston, Texas - just opened June 1st. Full autobody repair, ADAS and electrical. Corporate Collision Centers, 14800 Hempstead Road, Houston, Texas 77040 (281) 888-9636 is the office phone.
A customer with a 2019 Sienna went to the dealer to repair damage to the bumper cover on the driver side. They said that they cannot just fill in scratches and respray the damaged section because respraying a bumper will interfere with the BMS. Is that true? Furthermore, this car has the sonic peep holes on the bumper. Does that mean that it does not even have BMS which is radar and if it had radar it would not need the sonar peep holes?
The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system use modules on the left and right side under the tail lights. If the bumper cover is damaged in the area of the these sensors, you do not want to use any kind of bondo or filler to repair. Liability wise, most insurance companies and shops will replace the bumper cover. OEM repair procedures recommend you use OEM parts, not after market. The bondo or the plastic repair material will block the sensors from working properly. The park pilot sensors in the bumper cover are for assistance in backing up and parking. They are a separate system from the BSM. Most of the newer vehicles today are equipped with BSM and park pilot sensors and additional ADAS systems.
I am not sure about the measurements for that vehicle. I would need to connect my computer and read your VIN number to access the measurements for that vehicle.
A bsm malfunction alert popped up all of a sudden while driving my 2016 HV Rav4, and bsm stopped working since then. The dtc is c1ac1 master module misalignment.Tried to clear the code but it didnt work. I had no accident except for a cracked tail light long time ago, which i recently found it to be filled with water. Can water leakage to the bsm radar lead to such an issue?
Yes, water leakage could be part of this issue. A thorough inspection of the bsm module, harness, and molex plug needs to be performed. Once the inspection has been completed, if there are no signs of water damage, or wiring harness/molex plug damage, a calibration will most likely need to be performed.
Can both modules function as slave or master, or are they physically different and I need to purchase a slave module or a master module? Thank you in advance
Toyota differentiates the master and slave modules as left or right. This terminology is used in most scan tools. I believe the last Toyota I calibrated had the master module as the right side, and the slave module was the left side. The left and right modules are side specific. You need to confirm which module is faulty. Once you confirm which side is bad, have your VIN# handy when you call the dealership.
Hello, i recently got a message on my car dashboard while driving; it said "Check BSM system", i connected a computer to it and tested it and i got the C1AC2 message (Slave Module Horizontal Axis Misalignment). Can i calibrate it by myself using a DLC2 connector WITHOUT removing the bumper? because my bumper is screwed in to the car's body from an accident years ago and i don't want to go through the trouble of unscrewing and repainting it. I'll be waiting for your reply
That diagnostic fault code indicates the BSM sensor being out of alignment/range of the factory pre-set parameters. Something has altered the position of the slave BSM sensor to trigger the dash mil light/fault code. To properly calibrate the slave BSM sensor, you will need to remove the bumper cover, have the proper ADAS scan tool with ADAS software, proper open space, proper measurements per the vehicle, and proper target to align the BSM module. What is the year, make, and model?
@@airbagsunlimited It's a Toyota Camry 2013 XLE, the thing is after the accident the BSM still worked and i checked it and its position hadn't changed at the time, the message appeared suddenly while i was driving when i stopped at a red light
@@fadiayoub1150 Hi brother Fadi I have the same exactly problem with the same code . my Camry 2015 and suddenly when I was in the traffic a message show off check blind spot monitor system please if you fix your Camry please tell me how to fix mine and thank you
Hi @6jad6jad54, I encountered the same issue. In the evening, my car was hit by a friend in the parking lot, but the BSM was operational. The next morning, it was still functioning correctly as I went to work. However, on my way home, halfway through the journey, a message suddenly appeared on the screen indicating that the BSM is unavailable.
I remember when cars use to be able to take a bump without damage. Good video👍
Excellent video 📹! Thanks for posting the details of the calibration procedure. Terrible when someone hits your parked car and drives you crazy to try to figure out why suddenly you got a bsm failure mode.
Also got a impact on my sienna on the right side. Will try this out and see. Very Very Helpful!

ok vid. wouldn’t have minded you showing the calibration steps on the tablet. it looks like you may have been using an Autel Maxisys?

Hello. What's the scanner model did you use? Thank you.
We use the Autel MS909
i have a problem with my 2016 toyota tacoma with the right front blind spot sens or as well with the left front sensor
Hi ..My BSM sensor is damaged ..need to replaced ..what numbers or codes should be compatible in the new one ..is that very important to copatible ..i get of the same model and year of my car Rav4 2020 hybrid
What is the distance for the reflector's laser from the ground?
Hi there
What scantool you use to do this calibration?
I think he said Autel.
Why would my drivers side be shorter than my right side on my 2020 Camry? It was fine until I took it to the dealer for an oil change. No dents or marks on bumper. Did you say the sensor starts at 28” inches behind the car??
Can the sensors be calibrated with out using the the projector
I have 2013 Toyota Camry xle without BSM,is it possible to install aftermarket one?
WHAT KIND OF SHOP ARE YOU GUYS THAT CALIBRATE SENSORS?
THANK'S
Hello! Thank you for the video.
I am the owner of a 2017 Sienna, my blind spot sensor requires calibration, is it possible to do this at home?
nope. you need the obd interface, oem or other tool sys and the approved targets. all are expensive as hell. not to mention you have to apply to your pcm which you do NOT want to do without experience and training.
Nice job where do you get your targets?
Thank you very much for the very helpful video!!! Are the measurements for Sienna 2015 Limited the same? I've got this car in Ukraine and the dealership has no clue how to set up the targets for calibration.
Pls how do i recognise the slave and the master sensor?
Camry 2017 how much you charge
PLS I NEED YPUR HELP My BSM IS MALFUNCTIONING ON MY 2019 RAV4,PLS CAN I REPLACE IT WITH ONE REMOVED FROM ANOTHER RAV4 PURCHASED FROM EBAY.

Awesome video!
At least you didn't need to remove and replace the entire system.

What’s the part no?
Have a question can the system or the sensor can be Adjust to detect because more far back
No, the factory blind spot sensors are set by the manufacturer. They cannot be adjusted out. Deviation from the factory location is not possible.
what are the mesurments for ls500 for master bsm sensor? 2.3 ft by 12.1 ft ? thanks

how long it took to calibrate whole system?
It took about an hour/hour and a half to repair and calibrate.
Perfect
Title says 2012 but the tech said it was a 2020.
Video title says 2012… I am confusion
You sure that’s going to be accurate…?? I’m sure you can’t have other objects within the calibration zone..
This a sorry video didnt show how to do anything the really mattered.
