Radar help please.

My wife forgot I was parked beside her and clipped the left front of my Supra while pulling out of a parking lot. Had to have the front clip resprayed, a new side parking sensor, and new headlight. Got the car back and the cosmetic repair is flawless but my radar isn’t working now. Gives error messages about reduced driver assist, pedestrian detection and cruise control. The body shop had the car calibrated which I don’t understand because all they had to do replace the one parking sensor but whatever. Here’s my question, in the attached pic there is a small circular hole above the radar sensor. I don’t remember seeing that before but very easily could have missed it since I never looked closely there before. Is this an access hole for adjustments or something and it’s been left out or do they all have this and I just never noticed? If it’s something important they removed and left out I’d like to know before the car goes back. I’m also wondering if it’s more likely they missed a connection when putting the bumper cover back on? Thoughts would be appreciated!

I'm unsure where the hole is on yours, but here's a picture of the left front of my 2021. There are no holes.

Thanks but can you possibly take a pic of the other side? The radar is on the passenger side. Appreciate the help!

Just found a YouTube calibration video. That hole is a vertical adjustment location. Looks like the car just needs to be accurately calibrated.

I'd be checking the body shop re connected the radar after having the front bar off doing the repair as a first step.

Lol, look on the other side.

Closing the loop. Have the car back and everything works again. The guy at the body shop said the place that does their calibrations said something about an issue with software versions. Bottom line is the car looks perfect and everything works so I don’t care why it took two tries to get it programmed.
