Recent DEG Inquiry 37206 provides clarification to the labor time established for “Aim Distance Sensor.”

“The estimated work time of 0.6 hours applied to the ’aim distance sensor’ operation includes, measure for and setting up targets, physical alignment of camera/sensor and putting the vehicle in position-dedicated area or alignment rack.”

MOTOR adds:  “Setting up the targets to aim the radar sensor and moving the vehicle into dedicated area is included. Installing fixtures on wheels and rolling vehicle forward and backwards would not be included in the estimated work time.”

MOTOR adds:  “MOTOR will not be adding a footnote in this case.  Clarity is provided in reference to the current GTE statement, ’Items not listed under the INCLUDED/DOES NOT INCLUDE heading for any given procedure have not been considered in the estimated work time development for that procedure, unless specified by a footnote.’”
