Steering Column Telescopic Motor

The steering column telescopic motor controls the inward and outward position of the power adjustable steering column. The telescopic motor is powered by the DSM and is equipped with a Hall-effect type rotation sensor that sends digital signals to the DSM. The DSM uses these signals to calculate the location of the steering column in relation to the full forward and rearward positions and to make sure the telescopic motor does not stall against the steering column end of travel in the forward or rearward direction. The telescopic motor is serviced with the steering column.
