Ford Mondeo, S-Max & Galaxy Steering Lock Replacement and Emulator Service (2014 & Up)
If your Ford Mondeo, S-Max, or Galaxy won’t start even with a working key, the issue is often a faulty Electronic Steering Lock (ESL/ELV). This fault is especially common in Ford vehicles built on the CD4 platform, typically manufactured from 2014 onwards.
At Mr. Ignition, we supply and program brand-new steering lock units and emulators to restore ignition and steering control. Our professional mobile service provides a fast, cost-effective alternative to expensive main-dealer replacements.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Steering Lock
Ignition turns on, but the car won’t start
Steering wheel remains locked even when using the correct key
“Steering fault” or “Immobiliser active” warning on the dashboard
Clicking or no sound from the steering column
Intermittent starting or complete no-start condition
These symptoms typically indicate failure in the electronic steering column lock (ESCL), a component responsible for securing and releasing the steering column when the ignition is turned on.
Compatible Ford Models
Our service covers the following vehicles:
Ford Mondeo (2014+)
Ford S-Max (2016+)
Ford Galaxy (2016+)
Common Fault Codes
When diagnosing a steering lock fault, you may see one or more of these codes:
B10A9 – Steering Column Lock Fault
Indicates a malfunction or loss of signal from the steering lock unit.B10AD – Steering Lock Control Module Error
The lock cannot engage or communicate with the ECU.U3000 – Control Module Internal Fault
Suggests a circuit or internal hardware failure within the lock assembly.B1013 – Power Supply Voltage Fault
The steering lock is receiving incorrect or intermittent voltage.
These codes generally prevent the vehicle from starting, even if the key and immobiliser are working correctly.
