Symptom 2: Tilt System Does Not Operate

Check Steering Wheel Tilt Mechanism
Check the following.
- Operation malfunction caused by steering wheel tilt mechanism deformation or pinched harness or other foreign materials.
- Operation malfunction and interference with other parts by poor installation.
OK or NG
1. OK : GO TO 2.
2. NG : Repair the malfunctioning part and check again.
Check Tilt Switch Input/Output
1. Disconnect steering position switch connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between steering position switch harness connector terminals 2 (P/L), 3 (PU/R) and body ground.
