End of Travel Position
The steering column sets a stopping position

to prevent damage to the steering column.
A new stopping position sets if the steering
column encounters an object when tilting or
telescoping.
To reset the steering column to its normal
stopping position:
1. Confirm there is nothing obstructing the
motion of the steering column.
2. Press and hold the steering column control until the steering column stops
moving.
3. Press the steering column control again.
The steering column may begin to move
again.
4. When the steering column stops, continue holding the control for an
additional few seconds.
5. Repeat for each direction as necessary. A new stopping position is set. The next time
you tilt or telescope the steering column, it
will stop just short of the end of the column
position.

position with the memory function. See
