try the banging steering column trick. unlock the steering column and bang it up and down pretty abruptly. the steering lock could unfreeze.

also try unplugging the unit. the tab is on the top side of the harness. take it off count a few sec and re-plug. do that a few times and try re-start.

if your battery charge is low see if you can trickle charge it 30min -1hr too. that could potentially help.

but once your car starts get the car checked over cause it will fail again apparently.

lucky- i posted links to courtesyparts in the DIY (p2). they appear to have the steering locks in stock.

luckyguytim · 12-27-2011, 05:04 PM

they have it in stock but no ETA date. mean they can't not sell untill nissan release the part!

kenchan · 12-27-2011, 05:16 PM

that doesnt make any sense.

luckyguytim · 12-27-2011, 05:23 PM

they are must be invastigating or hiding somthing!! service at nissan dealer can't even get answer from factory! lot's of people are just waiting for parts!!

kenchan · 12-27-2011, 05:28 PM

you should call up courtesy parts tomorrow. i am sure they can ship you the parts they have in-house.

Update on my Z. My second time to dealership the Steering Wheel lock was replaced. Now I have a new IPDM and Steering wheel lock. According to my nice service manager he told me Nissan recommends replacing IPDM first. So round two I got the Steering Wheel lock.

Also this may be wrong because I was half asleep when my service manager was talking to me but he claimed both IPDM/Steering Wheel lock are connected to the same fuse and one of them was shorting/burning? it out and my case Steering Wheel lock.

forrest- good to hear they finally changed the steering lock on your 2nd visit.

luckyguytim · 12-30-2011, 07:06 PM
