Pinpoint Test C : The Adjustable Steering Column Operates In One Second Intervals When Using The Steering Column Control Switch (Jog Mode): Notes
Refer to Adjustable Steering Column for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
If an adjustable steering column tilt or telescopic motor sensor (reach motor sensor) DTC sets (or if either of the sensor circuits become open), the DSM does not recall a programmed memory position or automatically position the steering column during the easy entry/exit operations. Under these fault conditions, the affected steering column motor operates in jog mode. Jog mode allows limited operation of the affected steering column motor using only the steering column control switch. When the steering column control switch is operated in jog mode, the steering column moves in the desired direction for one second, then stops regardless of the length of time the switch is activated. The steering column control switch must be released, then activated again in order to move the steering column for an additional second.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Condition |
|---|---|---|
| DSM B12A7:11 | Steering Column Tilt Sensor A: Circuit Short To Ground | This DTC sets in continuous memory and on-demand if the DSM detects a short to battery voltage on the telescopic sensor feedback circuit. |
| DSM B12A7:15 | Steering Column Tilt Sensor A: Circuit Short To Battery Or Open | This DTC sets in continuous memory and on-demand if the DSM detects a short to ground on the telescopic sensor feedback circuit. |
| DSM B12A8:11 | Steering Column Telescope Sensor A: Circuit Short To Ground | This DTC sets in continuous memory and on-demand if the DSM detects a short to battery voltage on the tilt sensor feedback circuit. |
| DSM B12A8:15 | Steering Column Telescope Sensor A: Circuit Short To Battery Or Open | This DTC sets in continuous memory and on-demand if the DSM detects a short to ground on the tilt sensor feedback circuit. |
