REPAIR SERVICE - Audi A6 Q7 Access Start Authorization Steering Lock J518 Module

**Professional REPAIR / REMANUFACTURE SERVICE for YOUR EXISTING/Original  Audi Access Start Authorization Steering Lock (J518) Module.** The Access Start Authorization Module is part of the steering column assembly and houses the brain of the immobilizer system as well as moving components for locking and unlocking the steering column.   Once the steering is unlocked, it triggers ignition on sequence and starts the vehicle. Module failure is a common problem in **Audi 2005-2011 A6/S6 and 2007-2015 Q7** model vehicles.   Module problem is typically identified by no response from key in the ignition, or proximity access (Start button). The Start / Stop Authorization Module (along with the Electronic Ignition Switch) is responsible for key/transponder recognition, unlocking/locking of steering wheel and powering up all modules in the vehicle. If there is problem related to any of the lock module moving/wear components (actuator motor, sensing micro switches, relay) or the integrated Immobilizer system Microprocessor/PCB, the module will not power relays to enable ignition on or engine start.   Wear and tear component related failure will store a fault/DTC **"00288 - Steering Column Lock Actuator (N360) - Defective"**. AUDI C6 Q7 A6 Steering Module J518 ELV Emulator - Universal solution, three types MCU all can replaced by this emulator. (replace MCU Mask: 1L59W, 3L40K, OL01Y directly); - Stable and durable, No Vulnerable components such as relays, microswitch and motors on it. - Easy for replacing, write in the dump form original J518 Module Service covers Re manufacture of the Start / Stop Authorization Steering Lock module.   The module can be cleanly separated from the Steering Column (in the unlocked position) and serviced (we can provide removal instructions).   By dealer standard, the Module itself can't be purchased separately, which means that the dealer will want to replace the entire steering column along with the Start / Stop Authorization Steering Lock Module. **The dealer cost to replace is roughly $1600-1800 (depending on manual vs electric height adjustment) for parts and $1000+ labor, including the need for Immobilizer coding with Audi online servers.** No additional coding or dealer visit is required upon reinstall. Please let us know if you have diagnosed the module with another problem/fault (outside of the typical wear related fault resulting in "288" - Steering Lock Defective Fault code) :        \\* module has previously been opened, tampered or repair attempt carried out        \\* module (internal PCB) is physically or water damaged        \\* KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION        \\* vehicle is newer than 2009+ (likely to have a non wear related module problem) Module may need additional repairs and identity coding (and online coding due to Microprocessor damage and identity loss).
