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 or upper bracket assembly) via direct line and the steering lock position signal sent via LIN communication do not match.

DTC No.

B2285

Steering Lock Position Signal Circuit Malfunction

The steering lock position signal sent by the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) via direct line and the steering lock position signal sent via LIN communication do not match. (1-trip detection logic*1)
  • LIN communication system
  • Steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly)
  • Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)
  • DCM (telematics transceiver)*2
  • Wire harness or connector

DTC Output Confirmation Operation:

  • Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, wait 30 seconds and then reconnect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal. Wait at least 40 seconds with the engine switch off (wait is the steering locked), then turn the engine switch on (IG) (steering unlocked) and wait at least 40 seconds.
  • *1: Only detected while a malfunction is present and the engine switch is on (IG).
  • *2: for Remote Connect Compatible Type

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the Techstream with the engine switch off, connect the Techstream to the DLC3 and turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less until communication between the Techstream and the vehicle begins. Then select the vehicle type under manual mode and enter the following menus Body Electrical Smart Key. While using the Techstream, periodically turn a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds or less to maintain communication between the Techstream and the vehicle.
  • The smart key system (for Start Function) uses the LIN communication system and CAN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the smart key system (for Start Function) after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.

  • After repair, confirm that no DTCs are output by performing "DTC Output Confirmation Operation".

HINT:

Although the remote engine start and stop service of Toyota Entune Remote Connect is not available for this model, it is still necessary to check the direct line between the DCM (telematics Transceiver) and certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).*

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK FOR DTC

(a) Check for DTCs.

Body Electrical > Smart Key > Trouble Codes

HINT:

  • If the steering cannot be unlocked, the engine switch cannot be turned on (IG) and the engine cannot be started.
  • If LIN communication is not available, the steering cannot be locked or unlocked.

OK:

LIN communication system DTC B2785 is not output simultaneously.

READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (STEERING UNLOCK SWITCH)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Power Source Control / Data List.

  • When the engine switch is off, if any door is opened or closed, the steering is locked.
  • When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in the cabin 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.

except Manual Transaxle

  • When the shift lever is in P and the engine switch is off, if any door is opened or closed, the steering is locked.
  • When the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly is in the cabin 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.

HINT:

  • *: If any of the doors are opened with the engine switch off, the steering will be locked. If the engine switch is turned on (ACC) or on (IG) with the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly in the cabin, the steering will be unlocked.
  • DTC B2285 may be stored due to a malfunction in the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly). The steering lock position signal and unlock position signal are sent from the steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator or upper bracket assembly) to the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) individually.
