   Tester Display	Measurement Item/Range	Normal Condition	Diagnostic Note
   Steering Unlock Switch	State of steering unlock sensor signal output from steering lock actuator assembly/OFF or ON	OFF: Steering locked ON: Steering unlocked	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 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.

OK: Go to next step 

1. Reconnect the D59 steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) connector.
2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   Positive (+) tester probe → D59-4 (SLP) Negative (-) tester probe → Body ground	Steering locked*	10 kΩ or higher
   Positive (+) tester probe → D59-4 (SLP) Negative (-) tester probe → Body ground	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.

OK: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the D41 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
2. Disconnect the D59 steering lock ECU (steering lock actuator assembly) connector.
3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   D41-26 (SLP) - D59-4 (SLP)	Always	Below 1 Ω
   D41-26 (SLP) or D59-4 (SLP) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

OK → See step   8
