Is it dangerous to drive with this module faulty?

A stuck-locked column prevents driving entirely (it’s a no-start fault), while a fault causing it to unlock unexpectedly while driving would be extremely dangerous — either way this needs prompt professional attention.

Can this module be repaired instead of replaced?

Some specialists offer repair services for common failure points, which can be more affordable and faster than a full replacement requiring dealer programming.

What is the module made of?

A mechanical locking pin mechanism combined with an electronic control circuit.

Signs of a faulty part

If you notice any of the following, the part likely needs replacement:

Steering wheel remains locked even with the correct key/fob present

Diagnostic fault code related to the module itself

Installation information

I ordered a Heater Blower Motor Resistor for a Toyota Avensis. Delivery took eight days from Latvia to Ireland. I installed it, and everything works perfectly. I wish this company success.

No complaints about Evro Trans itself, everything's fine. But the delivery..... It felt like the order was being carried by turtles. 4 days from Riga to Daugavpils. Judging by the tracking, the parcel just sat somewhere behind a shed for 3 days, then they found it and delivered it the next day. I think that's why I won't be ordering there again.

Bought a front fender for my car. I liked it! After payment they sent more than 20 photos of the problem areas, and it was packed very securely - took a while to unwrap.
