Valuable advise, SouthArk370Z. On behalf of the Forum, I thank you.

Hi-Step'n370Z

This is a serious problem just waiting to happen to all 370Z's.

It's not if, but when it will happen to your Z.

I consider this a mandate, and you all need to take one of the actions mentioned so far on the Forum to disable that lock!

I chose to go with the harness and am happy with it, but any of the other great suggestions are fine too.

I am seriously suggesting to all 370Z owners to disable that lock NOW! Do not wait any longer.

This is serious and needs to be taken care of A.S.A.P. before it get's you into a bad situation - or worse.

Not all 370Zs, just the first two years*. Then Nissan deleted the ESCL.

But, yeah, if your Z has an ESCL, you should disable it before it fails.


*I can't remember exactly when Nissan did away with the ESCL but, IIRC, it was around the 2011 model year.

Hi all,

I have been reading these steering lock threads all morning after my car failed to start to see if this problem effected cars from 2011-12 as mine is a late 2011 Roadster model. I have all the same symptoms, lock sign on at the start button and small yellow key warning light is on. Steering is unlocked. Tried fob in slot, new fob battery etc.

Been a horrible day, was actually trying to get roof trim fixed, with only bad news there, then went to leave the trim place to go for a booked in specialist Dr appointment that I have been waiting ages for to get in and then this- car just been towed off to Nissan-not feeling very confident. To make matters worse they tell cant look at it for another 12 days as they are so busy.

Any ideas for this year model.
Thank you for any help
