~3min read
DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored when serial communication signals and LIN communication signals in the circuit between the power management control ECU and steering lock actuator assembly (steering lock ECU) are inconsistent.

DTC No.

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

B2285

Cable and LIN information between the power management control ECU and steering lock actuator assembly (steering lock ECU) are inconsistent.

  • Power management control ECU
  • Steering lock actuator assembly (steering lock ECU)
  • Wire harness or connector
WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • When the power management control ECU is replaced with a new one and the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal is connected, the power source mode becomes the on (IG) mode. When the battery is removed and reinstalled, the power source mode that was selected when the battery was removed is restored.
  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT:

Check the connector connection to the terminal to make sure that there is no abnormality such as a loose connection, deformation, etc.

PROCEDURE
  1. CHECK LIN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Clear the DTCs (See page ).


(e) Check if DTC B2287 is output.

OK:

DTC B2287 is not output.
