I've had my 09 370z for less than one month. I found this thread because I had the Yellow Key of Death last night. After towing to the Nissan dealer and being told it would be $1100 to replace the steering wheel lock, I took matters into my own hands in the dealer service parking lot.
I tried loosening and shaking the steering wheel up and down but that didn't help. I got the tire iron out of the hatch and beat on the lock module for a few minutes, pressing the start button every few seconds. Finally, the ignition went to Acc, and I knew I was golden. I popped the hood, removed the fuse box, and removed the fuse. Now it's as good as new! |
