It's important to note that not only is this a preventitive measure but IT CAN fix the issue if your lock mechanism has already failed. The only thing you will need is a rubber mallet and a bit of patience. Once your steering lock fails the steps are essentially the same. No clutch/brake, gently tap the lock mechanism with the rubber mallet while simaltaneously pushing the on button. If you're lucky(like I was) the lock will unseize and allow you to go into the "on" position. Once you're there follow the above steps. QUOTE]

I don't want to sound dumb, but just making sure that I follow you. If the vehicle has already failed, and we cannot get it to turn back on will removing the fuse do anything?

And I'm sure yet another dumb question, where is the lock mechanism?
Removing the fuse after it fails wont do anything. And the SLU is underneath the steering wheel
