WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Infiniti G35. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK FUNCTION 

    With CONSULT-II 

    Operate the telescopic switch with "TELESCO SEN" on the DATA MONITOR to make sure the voltage changes.

    OK or NG

    • OK : Telescopic sensor circuit is OK.
    • NG : GO TO 2.
  2. CHECK HARNESS CONTINUITY 
    1. Disconnect automatic drive positioner control unit connector and tilt sensor and telescopic sensor connector.
    2. Check continuity harness between automatic drive positioner control unit connector M96 terminals 23 and tilt sensor and telescopic sensor connector M99 terminals 3.

      23 (R/Y) - 3 (R/Y) : Continuity should exist. 

    3. Check continuity harness between automatic drive positioner control unit connector M96 terminals 23 and ground.

      23 (R/Y) - Ground : Continuity should not exist.
