2018 suzuki vitara help needed

Postby Rblon » December 5th, 2020, 8:01 pm

Hi guys,
I have a 2018 suzuki vitara, and the battery died.
Today i bought a new battery and changed it.....but had to remove the key from the FOB to open the door lock.
After i changed the battery, the car wont start.
A message is coming up on the dashboard "service steering lock system".
Does anyone know about this ?

I think its related to the gear selector not clicking into park properly
Had a similar issue 2x already

Use the shift lock
Put it in neutral, then go back into park and see if it starts

Reset the ECU
Take off the battery poles for about 20mins
