DTC B2782: Power Source Control ECU Malfunction [09/2014 - 01/2023]: Description

The certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) has a power source mode switching function.

This DTC is stored when the IGE input (the steering lock motor activation permission signal) sent directly from the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) to the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) is determined to be abnormal.
