Z won't start!

it's an electrical actuated device that puts a mechanical lock on the steering column,,,in the event of theft,etc.....Old school vehicles had them actuated by the key switch on the column.
They had a clock type washer underneath steering wheel,that a pin would retract in-when the key was switched back to off position.
Nissan has this underneath column,mounted in the box shown on page 1 of this thread.
if you have your key fob in hand & don't press brake pedal...press start button & you can hear/feel it unlock the steering wheel.
Like a Safety Device.

Great news! After replacing the fuse and that not working, I tried the hammering way. Got under the dash with a rubber mallet and hit the steerling lock box while hitting the ignition and boom it turned on! Pretty happy, saved me about $1000!

Glad to hear it worked out for you!
