What are the reasons for the failure of electronic steering lock to lock?

[VonLevi]

Electronic steering lock failure mainly falls into two scenarios: 1. For aftermarket push-to-start installations, regardless of whether they were installed at a dealership, steering lock failure is typically user-induced—otherwise the vehicle wouldn't operate. 2. For factory-installed push-to-start systems, this indicates an electronic steering lock malfunction. Below is supplementary information about push-to-start systems: 1. The push-to-start mechanism is part of smart vehicle technology: It's a button device that simplifies the starting process and can also shut off the engine. This system can be retrofitted either at the original key ignition position or as a standalone panel. 2. It employs software-based push-to-start technology, requiring attention to three elements during activation: (1) The wiring harness connection beneath the ignition switch; (2) The button's positioning; (3) The handling of the steering lock.
