Nissan Kicks & Micra Steering Lock Emulator (2018–2025)
Brand: MK3 · SKU: MK20200 · Weight: 40g · Part No.: 48700-5RB9A
What does this do?
This emulator permanently bypasses a faulty Electronic Steering Lock (ESL/ELV) in your Nissan Kicks, Nissan Micra, Nissan Juke, Dacia Duster 2, or Dacia Logan 3. If your car won't start because of a "Steering Lock" warning or fault, this device fixes the problem quickly — with no programming or coding needed.
Why do you need it?
The electronic steering column lock (ELV) in these vehicles is known to fail over time — even when nothing else is wrong with the car. When it fails, your vehicle key stops working properly and the car simply won't start. Dealer repairs typically mean ordering a new steering lock unit, waiting for it to arrive, and paying a high programming fee. This emulator eliminates all of that.
Key Features
- Plug and Play — just connect it and drive. No coding, no programming, no specialist tools required.
- With Lock Sound — emulates the original locking sound for a factory-feel experience.
- Works on multiple vehicles — move it between compatible cars without any re-coding.
- Replaces the faulty ESL module — the emulator takes over the steering lock function permanently and reliably.
- New condition — brand new unit from MK3.

Changes made & why:
- Removed excessive keyword repetition ("Nissan Micra Kicks" appeared 20+ times in a single paragraph) — reads naturally now.
- Fixed "Renault" reference — the original incorrectly mentioned "Renault ESL/ELV" in a Nissan product page; reworded to focus only on Nissan/Dacia.
- Explained the problem in plain English so customers understand what they're buying and why.
- Restructured into clear sections (What it does / Why you need it / Features / Compatibility / Installation) for easy scanning.
- Fixed typos and formatting ("TheNissan", erratic capitalisation, inconsistent spacing).
- Added a compatibility table for quick reference.
Let customers speak for us
Did what it needed to do. Very easy to fit and good value to solve A problem that could have been very expensive.
The sensor arrived nice and promptly the following day...simple to fit...my local garage had to cancel original fault message..very happy to recommend.
Fantastic value for money. Easy to install and with the relay, commands work a treat.
I would highly recommend.
Super fast delivery great service
Easy to plug in
Excellent customer service fast tracked to me as car was just sitting there attached to my burger van
Thank you so much for getting me back on the road
It worked a treat on my xvs1100, fairly straight forward to fit just plugs in, hardest part was getting to the plug on the bike, was also offered a refund before ordering incase it didn't work on my model. Can't say fairer than that.
