Now, the "good" news is that it died with the lock disengaged, so i can actually move the steering wheel.
I saw that removing the fuse would disable the lock, so i did that. The problem is the car still won't start even though i also disconnected the battery.
Can anyone point me in the right direction here? Because i don't want to shell out 500 bucks for another steering lock that is doomed to fail anyway (car is out of warranty). And i figured since the steering lock is disengaged, might as well just disable the thing for good.

Thanks in advance!
More than likely your steering lock disengaged just enough to unlock the wheel but it fully disengaged in order for the micro switches inside to close.
