WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford F-550 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-450 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.

  1. C1 CHECK THE TILT AND TELESCOPIC SENSOR CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect Adjustable Steering Column Tilt Motor C2600 .

    • Disconnect Adjustable Steering Column Telescope Motor C2601 .

    • Ignition ON.

    • Measure:

    Is any voltage present? 

    Yes  REPAIR the circuit in question.
    No  GO to  C2

  2. C2 CHECK THE TILT AND TELESCOPIC SENSOR CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

    • Ignition OFF.

    Are the resistances greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    Yes  GO to  C3
    No  REPAIR the circuit in question.

  3. C3 CHECK THE TILT AND TELESCOPIC SENSOR CIRCUITS FOR A SHORT TOGETHER

    Are the resistances greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    Yes  GO to  C4
    No  REPAIR the circuits in question.

    Are the resistances less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  INSTALL a new tilt or telescopic motor in question. Test the system for normal operation. If the concern is still present, GO to  C5
    No  REPAIR the circuit in question.

  5. C5 CHECK FOR CORRECT DSM (DRIVER FRONT SEAT MODULE) OPERATION

    • Disconnect and inspect all the DSM connectors.

    • Repair:

      • corrosion (install new connector or terminal - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals or pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary

    • Connect the DSM connectors and make sure they seat and latch correctly.

    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern is still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new DSM. REFER to: Driver Front Seat Module (DSM) .
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
