The Chrysler–Jeep–Dodge Steering Lock Emulator is designed to replace the OEM ELV/ESCL steering column lock used in Chrysler 300C, Jeep Grand Cherokee (2011–2013) and Dodge Challenger (2012) models.

Steering lock malfunction is a common issue that prevents the vehicle from starting even though the key and immobilizer system work normally. This plug-and-play emulator completely bypasses the defective steering lock and allows the vehicle to start immediately — no programming required.

Manufactured by MK3, this emulator features high-quality electronics, durable connectors, and built-in lock sound for OEM-like operation.

Replacing the OEM steering lock at the dealership is costly, slow, and requires additional programming. This emulator provides a fast, reliable and cost-effective solution.

⚙️ Technical Overview

The OEM ELV steering lock contains a mechanical locking mechanism that often fails with age. When this happens:

• The key is detected normally

• Ignition responds

• The engine will not start because the steering lock does not activate

In such cases, dealerships require ordering a new ELV steering lock and programming it — an expensive and time-consuming procedure.

This MK3 emulator bypasses the ELV entirely and restores start authorization instantly. No programming, adaptation or coding is required.

🛠️ Installation Instructions

1. Turn off the ignition.

2. Disconnect the OEM ELV steering lock connector.

3. Ensure the original steering lock is in an open (unlocked) position.

4. Plug the vehicle’s OEM connector directly into the emulator.

5. Start the vehicle — the emulator will take over ELV operation automatically.
