Steering Column Interlock ECU

Steering Column Interlock ECU

The steering column interlock ECU (C2055) receives the following power supplies:

A constant battery feed from fuse 18 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0584) on an RY wire. An auxiliary ignition feed from fuse 39 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0587) on a PB wire. An 'ignition on' feed from fuse 31 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0587) on a GB wire.

The ECU is earthed on an NB wire.

Transponder Coil

The transponder coil (C0049) is connected to the immobilisation ECU (C0059) by YU and YN wires. Both connections between the immobilisation ECU and the transponder coil switch between being both inputs and outputs. The transponder coil reads the vehicle identification information contained within the key transponder and relays it to the immobilisation ECU.

Immobilisation ECU

The immobilisation ECU (C0059) is located beneath the centre console, adjacent to the handbrake. It receives a constant battery feed from fuse 18 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0584) on an RY wire, and an auxiliary ignition feed from fuse 39 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0587) on a PB wire.

If the immobilisation ECU (C0059) has received a valid signal from both the transponder coil (C0049) and the steering column interlock ECU (C2055) when the ignition switch is turned to the 'crank' position, it transmits a rolling code to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (C0331) on a BP wire. The immobilisation ECU (C0059) also provides a feed to the starter motor relay (C0179) on a B wire.
