Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage |
---|---|---|---|
B+, TELE SW / MSM Fuse | Open TELE SW / MSM Fuse | Telescope inoperative | -- |
Steering Column Telescope Reverse Switch Signal | Open TELE SW / MSM Fuse | Telescope reverse inoperative | B2858 |
Steering Column Telescope Forward Switch Signal | Open TELE SW / MSM Fuse | Telescope forward inoperative | B2853 |
The memory seat module - driver receives voltage inputs from contacts inside the telescope switch. The memory seat module - driver then supplies battery voltage to the telescoping drive motor forward or reverse circuit depending on which direction of movement is requested. The motor is reversible and voltage is applied to either circuit to accomplish movement in opposite directions. The memory seat module - driver monitors the position and movement of the telescoping drive motor on the telescope signal circuit.
Ignition ON
The memory seat module - driver detects a switch input for more than 30 consecutive seconds after movement of the telescoping drive motor in the requested direction has stopped.
• | The telescoping drive motor will be deactivated. |
• | Memory recall functions will be disabled. |
• | A current DTC will clear when the failed switch input is no longer active. |
• | A history DTC will clear after 100 ignition cycles. |
An intermittently stuck switch can cause this DTC to set. Also, the driver can cause this DTC to set by holding the telescope switch for 30 seconds after the column reaches the end of its travel.
Steering Wheel and Column Description and Operation
Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Telescope Forward Switch and Telescope Rearward Switch parameters in the Driver Position Module Data Display. The reading should be Inactive for both parameters when the switch is not pressed.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the telescope switch. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
