DESCRIPTION

If the steering lock ECU determines that there is a malfunction inside the ECU, it outputs this DTC.

Diagnostic communication between the steering lock ECU and Techstream is performed via the certification ECU as the steering lock ECU is not connected to the BEAN.

DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
B2781Steering lock motor drive circuit is defective. Both lock and unlock position sensors detect "ON".Steering lock actuator assembly (Steering lock ECU)

The power source control ECU controls the power supply to activate the steering lock motor. This prevents the steering from being locked while the vehicle is moving.

DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
B2782Steering lock motor drive control circuit is defective.Wire harness Steering lock actuator assembly (Steering lock ECU) Power source control ECU

The steering lock ECU receives IG2 relay signals. Receiving the signals, the steering lock ECU determines that the vehicle is moving. The steering lock ECU does not lock the steering when it receives an IG2 relay ON signal (to prevent the steering from being locked while the vehicle is moving).

DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
B2788Different information is obtained from IG2 signals received directly from the IG2 circuit, and from IG2 signals sent via LIN communication for a period of 1 second.IG2 relay Wire harness Power source control ECU Steering lock actuator assembly (Steering lock ECU)

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - BATTERY) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below. Voltage Tester connection (Symbols) Condition Specified condition D14-6 (IG2) - D14-1 (GND) Engine switch on (IG) 10 to 14 V D14-6 (IG2) - D14-2 (SGND) Engine switch on (IG) 10 to 14 V Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below. Resistance Tester connection (Symbols) Condition Specified condition *D14-6 (IG2) - D14-7 (B) Engine switch off 10 kohms or higher *: This measurement is performed with the engine switch off to check for a battery voltage short in the IG2 circuit. OK --> REPLACE STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY NG --> REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - BATTERY)

The steering lock ECU is connected to the power source control ECU and certification ECU. The steering lock ECU cannot activate the motor unless it obtains permission from both the ECUs. (The power source control ECU assembly permits the steering lock ECU to supply power to activate the motor.)

The unlock position sensor is one of the components comprising the steering lock actuator. The sensor switch contact closes when the steering lock is released. The steering lock release signal is then sent to the power source control ECU. Receiving the signal, the ECU permits engine start. (This prevents the engine from being started with the steering locked.)
