Hi everyone, had this problem happen to me last night on my 2012 model. I knew about the issue but because the general consensus is that 2012 models onwards had the lock removed, I never even checked to make sure. Had to leave the car at work overnight but performed the Fuse removal this morning. The car was able to be started after a few hits with a hammer.
Wanted to say a huge thanks to this Forum and everybody that has contributed to figuring out a fix for this issue as I definitely didnt want to spend thousands of dollars at the dealer ( australian prices are even worse). Also wanted to emphasise that even though 2012 built Z's are apparently not meant to have a steering lock, do yourself a favour and check if you own one. Save yourself the heartache and spend 20 mins beong proactive.
Thanks again to everyone involved
