I read you were having problems with the tilt wheel after hooking up the xtools d7 scanner. Did you ever resolve the issue? My tilt will only go up half way. It will tilt down and in and out. But not up all the way.

Well I found out why my tilt wheel would not fully go to the up position. There was a error code b2355-17 driver vertical position sensor this caused the seat calibration on the tech2 to not work. It stated "clear codes before calibration" I tried clearing the code but that didn't work. So next I tried moving the driver seat up down back and forward to the fullest. Then I scanned for codes ...there were none.

Next using my xtools d7 in the seat menu, set up seat module. This cause the steering column to move is all positions then returning to the original position. The calibration ended. But the steering column would not move after that procedure. Next using the D7 I went to the steering wheel column menu and performed the column calibration.

That worked. I'm sure the Tech2 would have been faster but i wanted to make find out if the Xtools D7 was making the error instead of fixing the error. It was and it did. So to recap the D7 seat calibration causes the steering wheel tilt/telescope to freeze. The D7 steering wheel column menu/ calibration is the fix.

I'm not for sure. More than likely it wouldn't work since there was a lot of changes from the 04/05 series to the 06 on up even trying to program it with the Tech II
