Default Telescopic steering column

Hi,

The Telescopic steering column in/out stop working in my 2010 Grand Sport. I just had the seat out to put in sound deadener. Could that be the problem? Thanx, Reuben

It could be. Part of the seat memory system connector (under the seat) also controls the telescopic wheel wiring as per the attached diagrams. You should also check the fuse if your memory seat functions are not working.
If the fuses are Ok, then check the connector under the seat, and also the wires at the connectors for breaks.
Good Luck

Hi, I pulled the fuse and checked it. The fuse was good so I re-installed it. I notice a bunch of the fuses were slightly out so I pushed them all in. Telescopic steering column works now, Thanx a lot for your help. Reuben
