01 millenia-auto tilt/ clicks / no motion
I have got some great trouble shooting from this forum! THANKS
My problem is the auto tilt stopped working on my 2001
millenia. Sounds like I hear a relay clicking but thats it, any
ideals?

RE: 01 millenia-auto tilt/ clicks / no motion
Found tilt motor and removed off steering column.
The motor worked fine, column gear must have got hung up a
little, on motor worm gear. The column gear is nylon, motor worm
gear is steel. I moved nylon gear a little before I re-installed
motor in case it was stuck. Works fine!I'm not using auto-tilt feature,
move with switch next to auto buttonwhen needed. The nylon gear is probably on its way out and you can't order just the nylon gear, you have to order the lower half shaft of column/ OOOOPS! ........$1000.00
You can find the motor if you follow the bottom of the steering
column to the lower dash panel,there will be a gap between column
and the panel, you will see four screws(tilt motor)" hint, use a small pair of
vise grips to break lose the scews" . Hope this helps!
