FUNCTION
Steering Lock System
The main components of the steering lock system are integrated in the steering lock actuator assembly, and the steering lock ECU controls the lock bar operation through the control of lock/unlock motor.
The steering lock ECU detects the position (lock/unlock) of the lock bar and transmits this information to the power management control ECU and certification ECU.
In this system, the certification ECU determines whether to lock or unlock the steering based on communication with the power management control ECU. Then, the certification ECU sends lock or unlock command signals to the steering lock ECU through the ID code box. Upon receiving the signals, the steering lock ECU operates the lock/unlock motor to lock or unlock the steering.
