Well, the steering wheel isn't actually locked, I can spin it all around. Seems different from how they typically fail?

The locking pin may not fully retract and may not come in contact with the internal switches.

I'm not 100% convinced that the ESCL is your problem.

Thank you, I just did this and got it to fire up again. I think maybe it was stuck halfway between locked and unlocked

Glad to hear its running. :tup:

Now on to disconnecting it.

:iagree: Pull that fuse!
