DTC B2285 Steering Lock Position Signal Circuit Malfunction |
DESCRIPTION
This DTC is stored when the steering lock position signal sent by the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) via direct line and the steering lock position signal sent via LIN communication do not match.- HINT:
- When the cable is disconnected and reconnected to the negative (-) battery terminal, the power source mode returns to the state it was in before the cable was disconnected.

| Trouble Area
| DTC Output Confirmation Operation
|
B2285
| The steering lock position signal sent by the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) via direct line and the steering lock position signal sent via LIN communication (1-trip detection logic*) do not match.
| - AM2 fuse
- Steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly)
- Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)
- Harness or connector
| Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, wait 30 seconds and then reconnect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal. Wait 40 seconds or more with the engine switch off (with the steering wheel locked), then turn the engine switch on (ACC) (with the steering unlocked) and wait 40 seconds or more.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- 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 the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus:
Body Electrical / Entry&Start. 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.
- The entry and start system (for Start Function) uses a multiplex communication system (LIN communication system) and the CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting (Click here). Troubleshoot the entry and start system (for Start Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
- Before replacing the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) or steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) refer to the entry and start system (for Start Function) precaution (Click here).
- Inspect the fuses of circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
- After performing repairs, perform the operation that fulfills the DTC output confirmation operation, and then confirm that no DTCs are output again.
1.CHECK FOR DTC (LIN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM) |
Check for DTCs (Click here).
- OK:
- LIN communication system DTC B2785 is not output simultaneously.
- HINT:
- If the steering wheel cannot be locked or unlocked, the engine switch cannot be turned on (IG) and the engine cannot be started.
- If LIN communication is not available, the steering wheel cannot be locked or unlocked.
2.READ VALUE USING GTS (STEERING UNLOCK SWITCH) |
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Power Source Control / Data List.
According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.

| State of steering unlock sensor signal output from steering lock actuator assembly/ON or OFF
| ON: Steering unlocked OFF: Steering locked
| - When the shift lever is in P (for Automatic Transmission) and the engine switch is off, if any door is opened then closed, the steering is locked.
- When the key is inside the vehicle and the engine switch is turned on (ACC) or on (IG), the steering unlocks.
- The engine cannot be started when the steering unlock signal is off.

5.INSPECT STEERING LOCK ECU (STEERING LOCK ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY) |
Reconnect the E26 steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) connector.
Reconnect the E130 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.

|
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection
| Condition
| Specified Condition
|
Positive (+) tester probe → E26-4 (SLP1) Negative (-) tester probe → Body ground
| Steering locked*
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
Steering unlocked*
| Below 1 Ω
|
- HINT:
- *: If any of the doors are opened then closed with the shift lever in P and the engine switch off, the steering wheel will be locked. If the engine switch is then turned on (ACC) or on (IG), the steering wheel will be unlocked.
- DTC B2285 may be stored due to a malfunction in the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly). The steering lock position signal and unlock position signal are sent from the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) individually.
