Check Steering Lock Unit

  1. CHECK STEERING LOCK UNIT POWER SUPPLY 
    1. Turn ignition knob LOCK position.
    2. Disconnect steering lock unit connector.
    3. Check voltage between steering lock unit connector M26 terminal 1 (L/R) and ground.

      1 (L/R) - Ground : Battery voltage

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 2.

    NG: Repair or replace steering lock unit power supply circuit.

  2. CHECK STEERING LOCK UNIT GROUND CIRCUIT 

    Check continuity between steering lock unit connector M26 terminal 4 (Y/B) and ground.

    4 (Y/B) - Ground : Continuity should exist.

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 3.

    NG: GO TO  4.

  3. CHECK STEERING LOCK COMMUNICATION CIRCUIT 
    1. Connect steering lock unit connector.
    2. Check voltage between Intelligent Key unit connector M34 terminal 1 (R/W) and ground.

      1 (R/W) - Ground : Approx. 5V

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 4.

    NG: Replace Intelligent Key unit.

  4. CHECK STEERING LOCK UNIT COMMUNICATION CIRCUIT 
    1. Disconnect Intelligent Key unit and steering lock unit connectors.
    2. Check continuity between Intelligent Key unit connector M34 terminals 1, 31, 32 and steering lock unit connector M26 terminals 2, 3, 4.

      1 (R/W) - 2 (R/W) : Continuity should exist. 

      31 (Y/B) - 4 (Y/B) : Continuity should exist. 

      32 (R/B) - 3 (R/B) : Continuity should exist. 

    3. Check continuity between steering lock unit connector M26 terminals 2, 3, 4 and ground.

      2 (R/W) - Ground : Continuity should not exist. 

      3 (R/B) - Ground : Continuity should not exist. 

      4 (Y/B) - Ground : Continuity should not exist.
