You have a 6 speed manual ? Several threads on here about GM coming out with a fix for the column lock issue, when mine got the column lock message it was just a matter of time before the car had starting problems.

I just put one in a month or so ago, no DIC message once installed. If you are unsure if you have one two ways to find out 1. if you do NOT have to put it in reverse to shut the car off then it is installed 2. if you can turn the wheel once the car is off it is installed. I think I remembered reading some of the early bypass had some electrical issues and/or reliability issues. Read some of the old posts, you will get a very good education.

Thanks I believe the wheel does not lock and yes u need to put. Ar I. Reverse once I turn off engine to shut everything down but believe this bypass must be bad as I keep getting colume lock code on doc on start up and every 15 min of driving
