It's an automatic lock. If your steering wheel is not locking when you turn the car off then you either: don't have an ESCL, or yours has already been disabled, or you got lucky and yours failed in the fully unlocked position.

There is a TSB (similar to a recall but not considered as serious) out for the ESCL on earlier model 370Zs. Call your dealer and/or look through the info at the link in my sig to see if you are covered under the TSB. I don't know how warranty affects TSBs.

I recommend that you disable the ESCL, even if you have a Rev D. I pulled the fuse but there are other methods (see link in sig for links to DIYs).
