DESCRIPTION
The steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly activates the steering lock motor and moves the lock bar into the steering column to lock the steering.
When the steering lock is operating, the steering may not lock when the lock bar is not aligned with the lock hole of the steering column. In this case, the steering can be locked by turning the steering wheel a little, as is done for a vehicle with a mechanical key, to change the position of the lock hole.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When using the GTS with the engine switch off, connect the GTS to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the GTS and the vehicle begins. Then select Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start(CAN). While using the GTS, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the GTS and the vehicle.
Perform either of the following operations to lock/unlock the steering:
To unlock the steering, carry the key and turn the engine switch on (ACC) or on (IG).
To lock the steering, turn the engine switch off with the shift lever in P, and then open a door.
The smart entry and start system (for Start Function) uses the LIN communication system and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the smart entry and start system (for Start Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
Make sure that no DTCs are output. If any DTCs are output, proceed to Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart.
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
Before replacing the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) or certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly), refer to Service Bulletin.
After performing repairs, confirm that the problem does not recur.
When disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING GTS (LOCK REQUEST RECEIVE)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Entry&Start / Data List.
Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lock Request Receive | Status of steering lock command from certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) | OK or NG | OK: Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) sends steering lock command (within 10 seconds of any door opened with shift lever in P and engine switch off) NG: Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) does not send steering lock command (no door opened with shift lever in P and engine switch off) |
If OK is not displayed even though the steering lock conditions are met, the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) may be malfunctioning. |
| Tester Display |

| Lock Request Receive |
| OK |
|---|
| The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) receives a lock request signal within 10 seconds of turning the engine switch from on (IG) to on (ACC) or off and opening a door with the shift lever in P, and OK is displayed on the GTS screen. |

Tech Tips
Reasons for verification failure:
The steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) or certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) is malfunctioning.
There is a problem with the communication between ECUs.
An ECU is replaced, but is not registered.
An ECU is replaced with an ECU which has a code already stored in it.

Tech Tips
When taking measurements when the lock motor is stopped, it is not necessary to perform any operations.
In order to take measurements when the lock motor is operating, perform either of the following operations:
To unlock the steering, carry the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly and turn the engine switch on (ACC) or on (IG).
To lock the steering, turn the engine switch off with the shift lever in P, and then open a door.
