B2873

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The steering column tilt/telescope module (TTM) receives a input from the tilt/telescope switch when the switch is pressed. The TTM recognizes this input and tilts the steering column up.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ When the tilt/telescope switch is active for 30 seconds after motion has ceased, the module considers the switch shorted and sets the DTC.
^ If DTC B2860 or B2862 is current and the tilt/telescope switch is active for 30 seconds, the module considers the switch shorted and sets the DTC.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THEN DTC SETS
^ The TTM no longer tilts the steering column up.
^ The TTM continues to respond to valid inputs from the other manual switches.
^ All memory recall function commands are ignored for all directions.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
^ The TTM sees that the tilt/telescope switch is no longer active.
^ Use the On-Boards clearing DTCs feature.
^ Use a scan tool.
