One other option you can try is pulling the power steering fuse....start the car up with out it and let it run for a few minutes. Make sure the steering wheel and wheels are straight, shut the car off. Re install the power steering fuse and then turn the car back on. Don't touch the steering wheel and let the car run for a few minutes.

I had a similiar issue and that method worked for me.

You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

Would simply disconnecting the negative battery connector work the same?
