A steering lock emulator is an electronic module that bypasses or emulates the vehicle’s steering lock, allowing the vehicle to start when the original lock is faulty or immobilized.
While emulators restore functionality, they are usually intended as a temporary or diagnostic solution. Permanent repairs may require replacing the original steering lock.
Many of our steering lock emulators are plug-and-play, requiring no coding. Some advanced models may need basic programming depending on the vehicle make, model, and year. Always check the product listing for compatibility details.
Some emulators work straight out of the box, while others may require a diagnostic tool or programming software to integrate fully with the vehicle’s immobilizer system. The product description will indicate if any additional tools are needed.
Yes. When installed correctly, the emulator bypasses the steering lock without interfering with the vehicle’s ECU or immobilizer, maintaining normal operation for other systems.
Most modern emulators are designed to work with CAN or LIN bus systems, but always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle model before installation.
Yes. Access Fobs can programme a steering lock emulator for you. You’ll need to contact our technician to confirm cost and which components must be posted to us — typically the EIS box and a working key. Once confirmed, you can send the parts in for programming and testing.
Some emulators are compatible with keyless entry and push-start vehicles. Check the product listing to confirm compatibility with smart or keyless ignition systems.
When correctly installed, emulators should not trigger fault codes or warning lights. However, vehicles with advanced security systems may require specific coding to avoid dashboard errors.
