    Is there any voltage present? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair the (G914) Sensor Return circuit for a short to voltage.

    No 

    1. Go to step  9).
  8. 8)  STEERING COLUMN TELESCOPE MOTOR 

    Thoroughly inspect the wiring and connectors between the Memory Seat Module harness connector and the Steering Telescope Motor for a short to voltage or to any other circuit. If any problems are found, repair as necessary. If no other problems are found, view repair.

    Repair 

    1. Replace the Steering Column Telescope Motor in accordance with the Service Information.
  9. 9)  MEMORY SEAT MODULE (MSM) 

    Thoroughly inspect the wiring and connectors between the Memory Seat Module harness connector and the Steering Telescope Motor harness connector for a short to voltage or to any other circuit. If any problems are found, repair as necessary. If no other problems are found, view repair.

    Repair
