  1. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Tilt Up Switch, Tilt Down Switch, Telescope Forward Switch and Telescope Rearward Switch parameters while cycling the tilt/telescope switch between the TILT UP, TILT DOWN, TELESCOPE IN, and TELESCOPE OUT positions. The appropriate parameter should cycle between Active and Inactive.
    • If any of the parameters do not cycle between the specified values, refer to Tilt/Telescope Switch Circuit Malfunction in Circuit/System Testing .
  2. Observe the scan tool Tilt Sensor and Telescope Sensor parameters. Both reading should be between 0.2 and 4.8 volts.
    • If not within the specified range, refer to Tilt/Telescope Sensor Circuit Malfunction in Circuit/System Testing .
  3. Command the column to tilt up and down and telescope in and out using the tilt/telescope switch. The column should move in the commanded direction.
    • If the column does not operate as specified, refer to Tilt/Telescope Actuator Circuit Malfunction in Circuit/System Testing .
