The system will stop with the air dam in the raised position, then check the distance between the air dam and the front fascia using the appropriate gauges. If the result is negative, check for foreign bodies between the air dam and the fixed parts, check for any actuator errors, adjust the actuator position values, fix the faults and clear any errors. Repeat the self-learning procedure and the check between the air dam and front fascia. If the distance is still out of specification, the fascia must be adjusted again.
