My SLU failed in March of 2012. I had it replaced with a Rev D and also installed the wiring harness bypass.

We haven't had any issues. We received our recall notice yesterday and plan to take the Z in next week for the warranty work before we sell her.

I removed my fuse after my girlfriends Z had a steering lock failure. Since then we both have received our recall notices. Anyone know how to put the fuse back? I assume you put it in ACC mode, pop the fuse back in then turn the car off and on? Just like I removed the fuse??

just put the fuse back in with the battery disconnected and just hope when you go to restart it the steering lock doesn't F*'up between then and taking it to the dealership...

I started the harness idea, so I obviously have a bypass harness


Thanks to Brian (bdl99) @ Car Kit Company he offers some great products for our Z and I can say I own all of them


Should note, I have no other affiliation with this^ company ^other then being a customer.
