Or no it can not be replaced once it blows, and $500 is blown as well?

I now plan on fuse removal, just so I do not get stuck someplace. I still have a years warrenty and two additional years with some dang thing that added to warrenty.

the problem with the steering lock is that the mechanical lock itself fails. not the fuse. The idea of pulling the fuse is to keep the lock in the open position, and then never giving it the chance to fail again by basically turning it on.

OK I just did it. Now the battery is dead but I assume it will start. Thanks for all the help. I will soon be changing my 2009 Awaiting Steering Lock Failure sig.
