No clue, the guy told me the battery was completley dead, and I also had a blown fuse.

I tried jumping the car and It wouldnt work, so I dont know what the deal is specifically.

As for the car I would be pretty frustrated if that happened. You must be dying to hop in, get to know the car better and take it for a spin....

the first night i brought my Z home i charged the battery. at 2amps it took over 18hrs...so the battery was pretty weak even after the initial 20mile drive. in contrast, typically my battery manager will float within 3-4min if battery is fully charged after a drive.

well looks like I did not have the same problem as other forum members have been experiencing.

I only had a bad battery, as opposed to steering lock sensor malfunction.
