OK or NG
- OK: Telescopic sensor circuit is OK.
- NG: GO TO 2.
CHECK HARNESS CONTINUITY
1. Disconnect automatic drive positioner control unit and steering wheel telescopic sensor.
2. Check continuity between automatic drive positioner connector M41, M42 terminals 23, 33, 41 and telescopic sensor connector M67 terminals 1, 2, 3.
  23 (R/Y) - 2 (R/Y): Continuity should exist.
  
  33 (W/L) - 1 (W/L): Continuity should exist.
  
  41 (Y/G) - 3 (Y/G): Continuity should exist.
3. Check continuity between automatic drive positioner control unit connectors M41, M42 terminals 23, 33, 41 and ground.
  23 (R/Y) - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
  
  33 (W/L) - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
  
  41 (Y/G) - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
OK or NG
- OK: Replace telescopic motor.
- NG: Repair or replace harness.
