B1D93 RAM Description
The tilt, telescoping and electronic telescoping column has been designed to be serviced as an assembly; less wiring, switches, shrouds, steering wheel, etc. Most steering column components can be serviced without removing the steering column from the vehicle. The Memory Seat Module (MSM) input signal from the Steering Column Telescope Sensor is recognized in a specified voltage area. The input channel is an analog to digital converter input and the sensor is a hall sensor. The hall supply voltage is switched on when the motor becomes activated. This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set if movement in the Telescope Motor is requested and no motor movement is detected and only if failure counters are matured for both motor directions (forward/rearward). If the motor becomes energized and there are no hall pulses recognized after motor activation, the MSM will de-energize the motor after 2 seconds.
