“The complexity of ADAS features on commercial vehicles is increasing exponentially and repair facilities including independent shops need quick access to complete information to efficiently restore trucks to safe operating condition,” said Kristy LaPage, business manager for the commercial vehicle group at Mitchell 1. “We are delighted to help technicians diagnose and repair these systems by making it easy to quickly find the components and details they need to service and repair ADAS features.”
According to Mitchell 1, the manufacturer of the ADAS components for Class 4-8 commercial trucks is not always known. Because of this, TruckSeries, with coverage spanning from 2003 to 2021, has been designed to provide the component name when needed or when it is known. Additionally, the software was updated take into consideration the component location on the vehicle (left, right, forward, outside, etc.) to help guide the technician and increase efficiency.
Mitchell 1 states that the dashboard view presents an overview of related components, including whether the components of an ADAS feature will require calibration, special tools like targets, or a scan tool to complete the job.
