Component Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Tilt/Telescope Switch
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the tilt/telescope switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the following terminals with the switch in the neutral position:
- B+ terminal 4 and signal terminal 5
- B+ terminal 4 and signal terminal 1
- B+ terminal 4 and signal terminal 2
- B+ terminal 4 and signal terminal 3
- If less than the specified range, replace the tilt/telescope switch.
- Test for less than 1 ohm or resistance between the B+ terminal 4 and the signal terminal 5 with the switch in the TILT UP position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the tilt/telescope switch.
- Test for less than 1 ohm or resistance between the B+ terminal 4 and the signal terminal 1 with the switch in the TILT DOWN position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the tilt/telescope switch.
- Test for less than 1 ohm or resistance between the B+ terminal 4 and the signal terminal 2 with the switch in the TELESCOPE OUT position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the tilt/telescope switch.
- Test for less than 1 ohm or resistance between the B+ terminal 4 and the signal terminal 3 with the switch in the TELESCOPE IN position.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the tilt/telescope switch.
Tilt/Telescoping Actuator
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector X1 at the appropriate tile/telescoping actuator.
- Test for less than 2.0 ohms of resistance between the control terminal A and the control terminal B.
- If greater than the specified range, replace the appropriate tilt/telescoping actuator.
