Default 2014 370z solid Yellow Key warning light on dash

Hi guys,

Around january 13th i've had the solid Yellow Key warning light on the dash, have taken it to my local nissan dealer about a month ago and they said it needed a new steering lock, my understanding is that my 2014 370z(facelift DRL's in the front bumper) and shouldn't have a steering look but it does ( please see attached picture), they wanted nearly £700 (i'm from the UK) to fit a new lock , also fitting new fob batteries just incase.

the weird thing is it drives and starts as if nothing as happened, did remove the 10amp fuse under the bonnet for a while but it's now back in and still starts like normal, the other thing is there are no lights on the "fobgina" even tho it detects the key, nissan guy said it's because the steering lock is faulty, not so sure myself, any ideas before i try and get Nissan UK involved as it's a known fault so i shouldn't be outta pocket.

Cheers

I’ve got the same problem and have just given up on it. The car still starts without any problems.

Your going to want to pull the ESCL fuse asap. That may or may not make the dash light go away.

Hi guys, finally got my steering lock fixed, been driving fine all this time, after a few phone calls to nissan uk they agreed to pay for the part but i had to pay for the labour, sure i could have haggled for it all for free but happy with the outcome, hopefully the new one should last for a good few years.

If your lock is faulty its worth just a few minutes of your time phoning up nissan and see if they can help
