What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Since the tease from Mr.6MT (2 mins job), I decided to tackle the Steering Lock Fuse tonight.....


So..........


Step 1)




Step 2) It's quite a pain in the bu!! to take off that plastic cover, and it was more pain in the bu!! to put it back together after....





Step 3) The fuse box... you really have to pull it out slowly with strength... and reach to the bottom of the box to reach to 'tap' to release the cover..





Step 4) Now... this is the part caught me 5000% off guard..... I looked at the fuse diagram, and it states the fuse for the steering lock is the top one of the lower group....

And when I look at the fuse box.. I saw this..... ==>



Step 5) Beer Time...!!!




BTW, mine is 2011.

Mt Tam I am

I laughed. How cool is what you found though. Good job anyway.

I just removed the steering lock fuse from my 2011

Mr. Alcheng has a later year model that does not have the steering lock

get teh right tune its a problem!! (good way) not all shops know how to tune properly just be careful on who knows what they are doing

I did that the other day! So embarrassing.

Though, it does take some getting used to with this clutch (vs. my other car). Stalled it twice actually, but one was pulling into the garage at work trying navigating an incline with no one around. I still hate hills, and the people that pull up right behind you.

Broke the little white plastic hood prop clip yesterday while doing the steering lock fuse removal It costs a whole $3 and is not in stock at any local dealerships, so I purchased Pintsize's Z1 Hood Struts today and should have them installed tonight
