Jeep Cherokee KL / Jeep Renegade / Fiat 500 / Fiat Egea Steering Lock Emulator – With Lock Sound – Programming Required | MK22400 | Compatible with OEM 52185640 / 52041945 / 51995940 / 50154862 / 50154863 / 68145593AF/AB/AE/AC/AD

The Jeep & Fiat Steering Lock Emulator is designed as a replacement for the OEM ESCL/ELV steering lock module found in Jeep Cherokee, Jeep Renegade, Fiat 500 and Fiat Egea models. Steering lock failure prevents the vehicle from starting even when the key and immobilizer system are fully functional.
This emulator restores full operation by bypassing the defective steering lock—programming is required for this model.

Manufactured by MK3, this module includes high-quality circuitry, lock-sound output, durable connectors, and compatibility with multiple FCA platform vehicles.

Steering lock malfunction is a common issue in modern Jeep and Fiat vehicles. Instead of replacing the original steering lock module at high dealership cost, this emulator provides a fast and cost-effective solution.

⚙️ Technical Overview

The OEM steering lock (ESCL/ELV) contains internal mechanical components that commonly fail with age. When this happens:

• The key is detected normally

• The ignition responds

• The vehicle does not start, because the steering lock does not activate

Dealership replacement requires ordering a new steering lock unit and coding it to the vehicle—an expensive and time-consuming process.

This emulator replaces the steering lock electronically and restores start authorization after programming.

🛠️ Installation Instructions

1. Turn off the ignition.

2. Remove the original steering lock connector.

3. Connect the OEM plug to the emulator.

4. Program the emulator to match the vehicle data (required for this model).

5. Start the vehicle — the emulator will take over ESCL operation.
