STEERING COLUMN: STEERING LOCK SYSTEM: B2781: Open / Short in Steering Lock ECU
B2781 - Open / Short in Steering Lock ECU

DESCRIPTION

The steering lock ECU and steering lock actuator are supplied as a unit.

The steering lock ECU detects the steering lock position through the signals from the lock and unlock position sensors.

The steering lock ECU activates the steering lock motor based on permission signals from the main body ECU and the certification ECU.

The diagnosis information of the steering lock ECU is transmitted to the Techstream via the certification ECU as the steering lock ECU is not connected to the CAN communication system.





INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT
When the engine switch is off, the main body ECU may occasionally go into a non-active state called sleep mode. Therefore, before proceeding with the inspection, it is necessary to perform the following step to wake up the ECU:

With the engine switch off, open the driver door. Then (with the engine switch still off) open and close any door several times at 1.5 second intervals.
