I went ahead and pulled the fuse before mine failed. I suggest you do the same (or one of the other fixes), ASAP, before it goes out again. Once you pull the fuse, you don't have to replace the steering lock unless you need it for regulatory or insurance purposes. If you need it, then I'd suggest replacing the steering lock AND pulling the fuse. You would only have to re-install the fuse when you need it.
