ADP Steering Tilt Switch Circuit Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CHECK FUNCTION

With CONSULT-II

With "TILT SW-UP, TILT SW-DOWN" on the DATA MONITOR, operate the ADP steering wheel tilt switch to check ON/OFF operation.

TILT SW-UP MONITOR ITEM CHART

Monitor item [OPERATION or UNIT]		Contents
TILT SW-UP	"ON/OFF"	Operation (ON)/open (OFF) status judged from the tilt switch (FR) signal is displayed.
TILT SW-DOWN	"ON/OFF"	Operation (ON)/open (OFF) status judged from the tilt switch (RR) signal is displayed.

OK or NG

OK: ADP steering tilt switch circuit is OK.

NG: GO TO 2.

CHECK ADP STEERING TILT SWITCH HARNESS CONTINUITY
1. Disconnect automatic drive positioner control unit and ADP steering switch.
2. Check continuity between automatic drive positioner control unit connector M41 terminals 1,17 and ADP steering switch connector M16 terminals 2, 3.
  1 - 2: Continuity should exist.
  
  17 - 3: Continuity should exist.
3. Check continuity between automatic drive positioner control unit connector M41 terminals 1,17 and ground.
  1 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
  
  17 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
