Locating ADAS Information: Mercedes-Benz

Locating ADAS Information: Mercedes-Benz

As a collision repair technician, there is one part of a service manual that houses all of the information you would ever need…right? This is not the case with modern vehicles. You may be required to look in numerous manuals to find the information required to safely repair the vehicle.

The Repairability Technical Support (RTS) portal has videos posted to show you how to navigate specific OEM body repair manuals (BRMs), but this sometimes just gets you in the door. If you are looking for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) information in the BRM, you may not find any information at all. ADAS information is not normally located in the body repair manual. You may have to go into the service manual to find ADAS or a separate manual altogether. Luckily, the RTS team has already navigated most of the OEM repair manuals and we’ve found the ADAS information. Let’s see where to find ADAS information from Mercedes-Benz.

To find ADAS information after signing into www.startekinfo.com:

  • Enter VIN (top of webpage)
  • Make sure Search Mode is in Standard
  • Check the Group box for Electrical System, Equipment and Instruments (left-hand side of webpage)
  • Check the All Information Types box (right-hand side of webpage)
  • Click Start Search (top of webpage)

The manual opens, allowing you to scroll through ADAS information for the vehicle being repaired.

For a refined search:

  • Enter VIN (top of webpage)
  • Make sure Search Mode is in Full-text search
  • Check the Group box for Electrical System, Equipment and Instruments (left-hand side of webpage)
  • Check the All Information Types box (right-hand side of webpage)
  • Enter a search term, such as blind spot
  • Click Start Search (top of webpage)

The results of the search will be displayed.

This is also where most ADAS component R&I procedures and calibration procedures are found.

Some calibration events are found in these categories. You may also have to look in the R&I procedure for the body part that the ADAS component is attached to.
