Default Steering Wheel won't Tilt anymore

My steering wheel on my 01 GS300 will go in and out but it won't go up and down. When you push the button you can hear it click but it does nothing. Someone HELP this is very annoying as the wheel is all the way up.

take apart the console where the motor is and see if something is stuck maybe when you take it apart I'll start moving again. If not then you need a new motor.

if u clean the steering wheels motor and re-grease it they typically can/do work again but not always so try that first.

welcome to the family OP but PLEASE next time try using the search button with keywords like steering wheel stuck, steering wheel tilt or some other things as their is almost NOTHING you can think of we havent discussed before

ALSO try in here man BEFORE you make a post
