My SLU failed in March of 2012. I had it replaced with a Rev D and also installed the wiring harness bypass.

Bandit_Kaine · 04-20-2013, 05:46 PM

I just got the recall notice but i had cut the brown wire under the steering column..

Can i still take it in?

herZ and hiZ · 04-20-2013, 06:42 PM

We haven't had any issues. We received our recall notice yesterday and plan to take the Z in next week for the warranty work before we sell her.

Nism0 · 04-22-2013, 10:39 AM

I removed my fuse after my girlfriends Z had a steering lock failure. Since then we both have received our recall notices. Anyone know how to put the fuse back? I assume you put it in ACC mode, pop the fuse back in then turn the car off and on? Just like I removed the fuse??

LMBmikeZ · 04-26-2013, 07:22 PM

just put the fuse back in with the battery disconnected and just hope when you go to restart it the steering lock doesn't F*'up between then and taking it to the dealership...

O&G · 04-26-2013, 09:04 PM

I just hit mine with a hammer and havnt had any issues since!

LMBmikeZ · 04-27-2013, 04:32 AM

I started the harness idea, so I obviously have a bypass harness

Thanks to Brian (bdl99) @ Car Kit Company he offers some great products for our Z and I can say I own all of them

Should note, I have no other affiliation with this^ company ^other then being a customer.
