Look, I suggest we agree to disagree on this issue. The only reason that I brought up the whole "ECU learning" thing is simply that I don't think there's any reason to recommend that anyone reset the ECU to try and get it to "learn" that the steering wheel lock is disabled.
100% correct. The ECU encounters conditions and reacts to those conditions. It's all preprogrammed though.

There's a ton of guessing that is masquerading as fact in this thread. It's the reason i've stayed out of this thread but to correct the misread on the wiring schematic early on. The schematic shows that removing the fuse will disable the steering lock. What we can't be sure of is what the ECU does with that info, not from the schematic alone anyway. Obviously whatever condition the ECU sees doesn't prevent you from starting your car and driving off. My guess (with circuit design and repair experience) is that this mod is fine.
