Default column lock

I am going to get my car turned but before I do I need to make sure that I dont have the column lock problem again. I have already had the problem one time and had it towed to the dealer to get it fixed and they reflash the ECU when they do the repair. I have sence installed LT and a new CAI and want to get another tune but dont want to have to worry about the column lock problem and the reprograming . If I install a column by pass will I have worry about any problems with the ECU or the column lock . I just dont want to get A tune and then loose it because of the thing locking up. Thanks for any advice .

You shouldn't have any problems - definitely go ahead and install it.

8VETTE7 Thanks for the advice , I will check and see if it locks or not and take care of that and then ask the tuner to take care of the other. Thanks for the replys.
