Abstract
A system and method of calibrating vehicle safety systems utilizes a vehicle diagnostic computer tool that is configured to be connected to a diagnostic port of a vehicle to be in communication with an electronic system of the vehicle to determine vehicle safety systems present on the vehicle and generating a list of vehicle safety systems that require calibration. Calibration instructions are provided via the computer tool for selected safety systems requiring calibration, with the computer tool receiving and recording calibration confirmation signals while the vehicle safety system is calibrated per the calibration instructions, where the calibration confirmation signals corresponding to steps of the calibration instructions and provide an indication that the associated step has been completed. The system and method thus enable confirmation and documentation of the proper completion of a static or dynamic calibration of an electronic system of the vehicle.
