    Steering Lock Position Signal Compare Failure

    This DTC is stored when there is no continuity between terminal SLP of the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) and ground.
    • Certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly)
    • Wire harness or connector

    DTC Output Confirmation Operation:

    • Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal, wait 30 seconds and then reconnect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Wait at least 40 seconds with the ignition switch off, then turn the ignition switch to ON and wait at least 40 seconds.

    *: Only detected while a malfunction is present and the ignition switch is ON.

    • Wire harness or connector

    DTC Output Confirmation Operation:

    • Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal, wait 30 seconds and then reconnect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Wait at least 40 seconds with the ignition switch off (wait is the steering locked), then turn the ignition switch to ON (steering unlocked) and wait at least 40 seconds.

    *: Only detected while a malfunction is present and the ignition switch is ON.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When using the GTS with the ignition 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 Model Code "KEY REGIST" under manual mode and enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Start Key(CAN). 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 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.

HINT:

  • *1: Tester connection: Positive (+) tester probe → I59-4 (SLP1), Negative (-) tester probe → Body ground
  • *2: If any of the doors are opened with the ignition switch off, the steering will be locked. If the ignition switch is turned to ACC or ON with the electrical key transmitter sub-assembly in the cabin, the steering will be unlocked.
  • DTC B228562 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.
