How Is a Steering Column Lock Fault Resolved on Mercedes Vehicles?

In these days when electronics are becoming increasingly important, many electronic systems are now used in vehicles. Everything that was previously manual is giving way to electronic systems.

Many brand and model vehicles that use keyless start systems now have a steering column lock. This lock is also used as a security measure.

Keyless start vehicles without a conventional ignition key keep the steering locked when the key is not present. Therefore, a parked vehicle cannot be stolen.

The steering column lock system is now used by many vehicle brands. Mercedes is one of them. The ESL/ELV steering column lock system found in Mercedes vehicles can fail, like any electronic component.

A column lock fault is a mechanical fault that can occur on its own. On vehicles with keyless start and electronic steering systems, the probability of encountering this fault is quite high.

You can resolve these faults with Mercedes ESL/ELV steering column lock emulators. Steering column lock emulators are plug-and-play products that are very easy to use.

When a column lock fault occurs, you cannot turn on the ignition. In such a situation, you need to remove the column lock and install the emulator.

Once the emulator is installed, the fault will be resolved and your vehicle will run. Mercedes steering column lock emulators support Sprinter, A Class W169, B Class W245, C Class W202, CLK W208 and W209, E Class W210 and W211, Vito, and Viano models.

Our company, which works on smart solutions in the automotive and diagnostic sector, has produced ESL/ELV emulators at Nitro Mekatronik to help customers experiencing this problem.
