Trouble Shooting

NOTE: Prior to trouble shooting, ensure no problems exist in multiplex communications. If problems exist, repair multiplex control system before trouble shooting. See MULTIPLEX CONTROL SYSTEMS - GS300 & GS400 article.

NOTE: Check circuits and components in listed order. If circuits or components are okay, return to trouble shooting and identify next circuit to be checked.

NOTE: Perform power tilt steering column system self-diagnostics before performing trouble shooting. See DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
