Steering lock problem solved (for real)

1) Correct: if the clutch switch was the cause, you would be able to cycle through ACC and off but just no starting. 2) If you have put the key

1) Correct: if the clutch switch was the cause, you would be able to cycle through ACC and off but just no starting.
2) If you have put the key in the slot and it won't start, it is NOT your key battery
3) If you can turn your steering wheel side to side, YOU ARE NOT in steering lock and the switch is not activated. Pulling the fuse will stop the car from locking the steering in the future only, but will not allow you to start the car just because you pulled the fuse.

It sounds like your condition is somewhat unique in that you can turn your steering wheel and still not start the car even after resetting the ECU with the battery disconnected.

You MAY be forced to have the dealer run diagnostics on this one.... sorry

PS: Your english is better than my Arabic. Thank you!
