Default Steering wheel locked....

I have my car in the shop for a bunch of mods and they called saying that the steering wheel won't move.... what a great way to start modding...What's crazy is the byoass module was in the trunk and just didn't put it on. I got it unlocked though by shaking the **** ot of it with the key out and installed the bypass RIGHT after. I guess I have now been officially initiated into the C5 group now.

I was in the process of looking at and probably buying a vette when I first heard about the CL. I was going to look at it and the dealership called me and said that I cant drive it today beause the of the CL. they ahd to get it fixed and told me to come back the next week. In that time I found another vette and installed the CLB right away...

The car was taken in for the recall also, and it still happened.....so everyone that thinks it won't happen to you, it might be a good idea to install the clb.
