AFFECTED VEHICLES
CONDITION
The Easy Entry function of the power adjustable steering column intermittently does not work.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
The Easy Entry system is a standard convenience function of the power adjustable steering column.
When the Easy Entry feature is turned on (Figure 1, button B depressed) and the ignition switch turned off with key removed, the steering column moves
up to the parked position, which provides more room between the driver and the steering wheel. When the ignition is turned back on, the steering column
returns to the last stored position.
The steering column's position is stored in the memory of the vehicle electrical system control unit, J519.
The seat memory (optional equipment) also stores the steering column's position in the memory seat / steering column adjustment control unit J136 and
is independent of the vehicle electrical system control unit, J519.
