Tilt/Telescope Switch

Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the tilt/telescope switch.
Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals listed below and the B+ terminal 1 with the switch in the neutral position:
- Tilt Up Switch terminal 2
- Tilt Down Switch terminal 6
- Telescope Forward Switch terminal 3
- Telescope Rearward Switch terminal 5
- If less than the specified range, replace the steering column.
Test for less than 1 ohm between the B+ terminal 1 and the signal terminal 2 with the switch in the TILT UP position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the steering column.
Test for less than 1 ohm between the B+ terminal 1 and the signal terminal 6 with the switch in the TILT DOWN position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the steering column.
Test for less than 1 ohm between the B+ terminal 1 and the signal terminal 5 with the switch in the TELESCOPE OUT position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the steering column.
Test for less than 1 ohm between the B+ terminal 1 and the signal terminal 3 with the switch in the TELESCOPE IN position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the steering column.
