You wasted time at the dealer. You should have installed a CLB and be done with it. Your experiencing what every vette owner experiences by doing the recall route....heartache!
I just installed mine 2 days ago...30min tops, no codes, no locking column!

I'm having the exact same issue right now. I have a new battery I put in last fall. I believe there is a current draw though because after playing music for 20 mins with the car off, the battery is dead. I'd suggest checking for any draws from the battery when the car is off. If find a solution to your problem let me know because I can't figure mine out and the dealer I took it to is not helping in anyway and I do not want to take my car back to them.

faulty K harness
I had the same happen to me last weekend. There is a sticky on this, which helped me. I have a 98 which has had the recall. What I found was a faulty K harness, I unpugged it and reconnected my factory wires, and everything has been fine since.

k harness location
It will probably be best for you to look at the sticky on this, it has a lot of information that will be very helpful. On my 1998 it is located beneath the panel under the stearing column. The actual harness is tie wrapped with a black tie wrap on the left side of the stearing column in a whole. I hope this helps you some. Like I said, look under the C5 tech for the sticky on this subject.
Good Luck!
