Electric Steering Lock - Unlock Position Sensor Signal Circuit

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.)

Dtc B2788 Ig2 Signal Malfunction

The steering lock ECU receives power from the IG2 relay. When the voltage value indicated by the IG signal from the certification ECU equals to the voltage that is applied to the steering lock ECU, the steering will be unlocked. The steering lock ECU will not lock the steering when power from the IG2 relay is present (this prevents the steering from being locked while the vehicle is moving).
