Power Adjustable Tilt/Telescope Steering Column

The power adjustable tilt/telescope steering column is controlled by the steering column control switch and 2 electric motors that are powered by the SCCM. The steering column control switch is mounted directly to the SCCM on the LH side of the steering column just below the multifunction switch, but is serviceable separately. The steering column control switch is a 4-position, momentary contact switch. When the steering column control switch is moved to any of the 4 positions, it sends a signal to the SCCM to tilt the steering column up or down or telescope the steering column forward or rearward.

The SCCM continuously monitors the steering column tilt and telescoping motors and circuits for faults. If a fault is detected, the SCCM is capable of setting DTCs.
