Steering Lock System (Diagnostic Codes & Symptom Tests): Overview Toyota 4Runner V

Steering Column 3 illustrations ~548 words

DESCRIPTION

The steering lock ECU and steering lock actuator assembly 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 power management control 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.

DTC CodeDetection ConditionTrouble Area
B2781Either condition is met: A steering lock motor drive power circuit malfunction. The lock and unlock position sensors are detected to be on.Steering lock actuator assembly (steering lock ECU) LIN communication system Harness or connector of LIN bus line

The steering lock ECU activates the steering lock motor with the power from the power management control ECU through the IGE circuit. This prevents the steering from being locked while the vehicle is moving.

If NG (PAST) is displayed for Power Supply Open in the Data List, perform troubleshooting according to the procedures below.

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

The steering lock ECU determines the on/off status of the engine switch through the IG2 signal circuit.

The steering lock ECU does not lock the steering when it receives the IG2 relay on signal. This prevents the steering from being locked while the vehicle is moving.

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.

B2788The IG2 input to the steering lock ECU does not match the LIN communication input.IGN fuse Steering lock actuator assembly (steering lock ECU) Power management control ECU Harness or connector

Scheme 41: WIRING DIAGRAM

The steering lock ECU sends an unlock position signal to the power management control ECU. Upon receiving the signal, the power management control ECU permits an engine start. This prevents the engine from being started with the steering locked.

The steering lock actuator activates the steering lock motor and moves the lock bar into the steering column to lock the steering wheel.

When the steering lock is operating, the steering lock may not lock when the lock bar is not aligned with the lock hole of the steering column. In this case, the steering lock can be locked by turning the steering wheel a little in the same manner as is done for a vehicle with a mechanical key to change the position of the lock hole.

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.

The power management control ECU supplies the power to activate the motor of the steering lock actuator assembly.

The steering lock actuator activates the steering lock motor and moves the lock bar into the steering column to lock the steering wheel.

The steering lock may not release when the lock bar gets stuck in the lock hole of the steering column. In this case, if an engine start operation is performed while shaking the steering wheel in the same manner as is done for a vehicle with a mechanical key, the lock bar will release.

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.
