- The BCM grounds the steering column lock motor through the ignition switch ground. If the BCM is unable to ground steering column lock motor through the ignition switch ground, the BCM will set a DTC B2593.
- Disconnecting the steering column lock connector with the ignition in the ON position will cause the BCM to enter a Fail Enable Standby mode. The steering column will remain inoperative until the Fail Enable Standby mode is cleared. To clear this mode, disconnect the BCM1 & IPC fuse for 15 seconds.
- If the DTC is a history DTC, the problem may be intermittent. Perform the tests shown while moving related wiring and connectors. This can often cause the malfunction to occur.
