Set Up the E-PASS Sticker for the New Windshield
The Sticker goes on a clean, dry windshield behind or below the rearview mirror and below any tint band. That placement is on exposed windshield glass. A plastic camera cover, mirror housing or sensor shroud is not that mounting surface.
Where to Put an E-PASS Sticker on the Windshield
Do not choose the position until the replacement windshield has been installed and the equipment around the mirror is visible. Some vehicles place a forward-facing ADAS camera, rain sensor and other hardware in the same general area as the toll device.
- Wait until the old glass and its attached Sticker have been removed.
- Locate the rearview-mirror mount, camera housing, rain sensor and tint band on the new pane.
- Choose exposed interior glass behind or below the mirror without covering the camera’s viewing area.
- Clean and dry that glass before attaching the Sticker below the tint band.
- Contact E-PASS Customer Support before mounting if the directed area is occupied by vehicle equipment.
The E-PASS Sticker on the new windshield gets one proper attachment. Peeling it back to fix a placement mistake disables the tag under CFX’s rule. Confirm the position first, press it to the glass once, and leave the camera and sensors unobstructed.
Does a New Windshield Affect a Toll Transponder?
It affects the two E-PASS devices in different ways. The adhesive Sticker is affected because the pane carrying it is removed and the tag cannot be transferred. A Uni can leave the old glass before removal, but it still depends on correct remounting, current account information and a windshield through which its signal can be read.
The replacement windshield must also match the vehicle’s equipment. The VIN helps identify details such as the camera bracket, mirror mount, rain-sensor area, tint band and glass features. Bang AutoGlass installs OEM-quality glass matched to that equipment.
A camera mounted behind the windshield may require recalibration after the glass changes. Bang AutoGlass provides ADAS Calibration in the same visit when the vehicle requires it, where the procedure can be done on site. The calibration follows the vehicle’s camera-based driver-assistance requirements; it does not activate, test or update the E-PASS account.
A metal-oxidized windshield can keep the Uni from being read. Owners of those windshields should contact the vehicle dealer for placement help and E-PASS Customer Support if problems persist.
Catch a Missed Read Before the Next SR 429 Trip
Improper installation may prevent a transponder signal from registering at a toll facility. The driver is then sent a Pay By Plate invoice at the Pay By Plate toll rate.
E-PASS Not Reading After Windshield Replacement
Start with the placement and account rather than repeatedly driving through toll points. Check each item that changed during or around the windshield work:
- The replacement Sticker is on clean, dry glass behind or below the mirror.
- The tag sits below the tint band and does not overlap a plastic housing.
- The Uni suction cups hold the device in the position directed by CFX.
- The account lists the current vehicle and license plate.
- A metal-oxidized windshield has the placement recommended by the dealer.
Review the E-PASS account activity after the first SR 429 or SR 408 trip with the new setup. If the expected transaction is absent, contact E-PASS Customer Support rather than assuming the next trip will register.
Record the date, road, direction and approximate time of the missed read before contacting CFX. Do not peel a replacement Sticker off the glass to inspect it; removal disables it. A photo of the installed position can document the placement without sacrificing the tag.
A Pay By Plate invoice after a new windshield is a reason to check the placement, account and device status. Keep the invoice, the glass appointment date and the tag information available when contacting CFX, then follow the instructions attached to the invoice.
Keep the Windshield Claim and Toll Account Separate
Under Florida’s windshield deductible law, windshield damage is not subject to the deductible in the comprehensive or combined additional coverage policies named by the law. That law stops at the windshield; it does not include side glass, rear glass, an E-PASS Sticker or a Uni. Bang AutoGlass verifies coverage before any work, helps you with the claim and bills the insurer directly. Review the policy checkpoints on the Florida auto glass insurance information page. General info, not legal or insurance advice — coverage varies by policy.
The insurance claim does nothing to the E-PASS account. The replacement tag, account updates and any Pay By Plate invoice are handled with CFX.
Put the Glass Date and E-PASS Change on One Calendar
Prepare one set of vehicle details for Bang AutoGlass and another set of account details for CFX. That prevents the old pane from leaving before you have recorded the information needed for the replacement tag.
Mobile glass work needs a safely parked vehicle, working clearance around the windshield and conditions suitable for the urethane. Tell us if the only parking is fully outdoors.
Orlando’s median rainy-season start is May 27, and its median dry-season start is October 15. Colliding Gulf and Atlantic sea breezes often produce widespread storms with frequent lightning and heavy rain. The warm-season lightning maximum falls in the late afternoon and early evening. Between late May and mid-October, book an outdoor install in Ocoee earlier in the day, ahead of that storm window.
Shallow flooding from ponding and sheet flow is also a local possibility in Ocoee. Do not stage the vehicle in standing water or in a place where the working area can flood during a storm.
- Send the VIN and equipment details. Mention the camera, rain sensor, tint band or other hardware visible around the mirror.
- Name the E-PASS device. State if the glass carries an adhesive Sticker or a removable Uni.
- Save the toll records. Keep the account, vehicle, plate and tag information available.
- Arrange a safe parking place. The vehicle can remain at an Ocoee home, workplace or another suitable parked location during mobile service.
- Hold the replacement Sticker. Do not attach it until the new pane is installed and its mirror-side equipment is clear.
Our Mobile Auto Glass service brings the windshield work to the parked vehicle anywhere in Ocoee. The windshield and its camera, mirror and sensor features are matched to the vehicle before the old pane leaves. Trim, wiper arms and attached hardware are moved as required. The damaged laminated glass is cut from the urethane and lifted with the Sticker still attached.
The opening is prepared, the OEM-quality replacement is set into fresh urethane and the removed hardware is returned to position. If the vehicle requires camera recalibration, it is completed in the same visit where the procedure can be done on site.
After the interior surface is clean and dry, compare the open glass area with CFX’s mounting direction. The new tag must remain below the tint band without occupying the camera’s view or being pressed onto its housing.
Use the Ocoee windshield service page to request a no-obligation quote with the VIN, device type and date of the next toll trip. The appointment line at (877) 994-5277 accepts new requests 24/7. Tell us that an E-PASS Sticker is still attached to the old glass so the glass date and toll-tag change can be planned together.
Ocoee E-PASS Sticker and Uni Questions
I peeled my E-PASS Sticker off and it still looks intact. Why can’t I use it again?
The Sticker no longer functions after removal and cannot be reattached. Its appearance does not confirm that it can transmit a valid toll signal. Leave an attached Sticker on the discarded windshield, record its details for your account, and arrange the replacement device through CFX instead of testing the peeled tag on the new glass.
My E-PASS Uni missed a read on SR 429 after the new glass went in. What should I check first?
Confirm that the Uni is attached to exposed glass behind or below the mirror, not on the camera housing. Check that the vehicle and license plate information in the account are current. If the windshield has a metal-oxide treatment, contact the vehicle dealer for placement instructions before moving the Uni again, and E-PASS Customer Support if reads still fail.
The camera housing fills the area behind my mirror. Where should the E-PASS Sticker go?
Mount the Sticker behind or below the rearview mirror and below the tint band on clean, dry glass. Do not cover the forward-facing camera, attach the tag to its plastic housing or guess at a different location. Contact E-PASS Customer Support for instructions before committing the single-use Sticker to the glass.
Does Florida’s windshield rule cover a replacement toll tag too?
Florida’s windshield deductible law addresses deductible treatment for windshield damage under policies with comprehensive coverage. It does not mention an E-PASS Sticker, Uni or toll charge. Bang AutoGlass verifies the glass coverage before any work, and the toll device is arranged through CFX. General info, not legal or insurance advice — coverage varies by policy.
What should I have ready beside the car for mobile windshield replacement in Ocoee?
Have the vehicle accessible, leave the adhesive Sticker on the old glass and place a removable Uni somewhere protected before work begins. Keep the replacement Sticker unmounted. Park on a safe, stable surface with working room around the windshield, and mention any camera housing or rain sensor. Bang AutoGlass completes ADAS recalibration in the same visit when the vehicle requires it, where the procedure can be done on site.
