Column lock message

That message are shown.

If I turn off the car, the column doesn´t lock.

Maybe, the last owner take off the system, but how can I erase that message?

Thats wierd, usally when you get the column lock message your fuel will shut off and the car wont go anywhere. If your steering wheel dosnt lock youve either had the recall done or you have a CLB. Theres a sticky post that will tell you all about column lock. Its at the very top of C5 tech page....

Did you try pulling the #23 fuse in the passenger footwell to reset the BCM and clear the error message?
