Title: STEERING COLUMN: POWER TILT AND POWER TELESCOPIC STEERING COLUMN SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

DTC

B2610

Tilt Position Sensor or Tilt Motor Circuit Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The tilt motor is operated by the power source voltage supplied from the multiplex tilt and telescopic ECU and tilts the steering column up and down. The tilt position sensor (Hall IC) in the tilt motor detects the tilt angle of the steering column and outputs a signal to the CPU based on that tilt.



HINT:

Limit positions can be confirmed on the screen of the Techstream.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (TILT UP/DOWN)



(a) Select the Active Test, use the Techstream to generate a control command, and then check that the steering wheel tilts up and down.
