Notify me when its in stockThe Volvo V40 2012–2019 Steering Lock Emulator is a plug-and-start solution designed to replace the faulty OEM ELV/ESL/SCL steering lock unit—one of the most common no-start issues in Volvo vehicles. When the ELV mechanism fails, the vehicle will not start even if the key and ignition are functioning normally. This emulator fully bypasses the damaged steering lock system, restoring normal operation instantly with no programming required.
Manufactured by MK3, this emulator is engineered for stability, durability and OEM-like operation with built-in lock sound support.

The OEM ELV system contains mechanical components that can fail without warning.
When this failure occurs:
• The key works
• The ignition responds
• But the vehicle does not start, because the steering lock does not activate
Normally, the repair requires ordering a new ELV unit and programming it at a Volvo dealership—an expensive and time-consuming process.
This emulator bypasses the faulty module completely, restoring full vehicle start authorization instantly with no adaptation required.
Remove the factory ELV connector from the original steering lock unit.
Ensure the steering lock is not engaged (vehicle in “unlocked” mode).
Plug the connector into the emulator.
Start the vehicle.
Green LED ON → System ready, vehicle will start
Red LED blinking → Fault code must be cleared with any diagnostic tool
Installation takes seconds and requires no coding or programming.
