Pinpoint Test N: DTC B2332: Steering Column Tilt Feedback Potentiometer Circuit Failure

Tests N8 - N9:






Normal Operation
The steering column tilt motor receives information from the potentiometer when a memory position is requested. The potentiometer sends the tilt motor position information to the Instrument Cluster Module (ICM) where it is stored and is used when several adjustable features are requested. The potentiometer sends the steering column tilt position to the ICM through circuit 8-AL17 (WH/VT), and circuit 33-AL6 (YE/BU) powers the tilt motor.

Possible Causes
^ circuit 8-AL17 (WH/VT) open, short to power or ground
^ tilt motor potentiometer
^ steering column mechanical component
^ ICM

CAUTION: Use the Flex Probe Kit for all test connections to prevent damage to the wiring terminals. Do not use standard multimeter probes.
