    Default 2008 C70 does not start, message : Turn the steering wheel and start again. Need help

    This morning my 2008 C70 does not start, battery has full charge, displayed message is:Turn the steering wheel and start again
    I can turn the steering wheel either way all the way with engine not started but trying to start again, does not work .same message displayed again.
    Checked the steering wheel fluid reservoir, it has fluid to the right level.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Common problem on early p1, most certainly it's the steering lock that's failing:

    Given that there is no OBD fault code, I was suspecting lock failure myself and with the info you provided I become certain it's the lock as you explain it in your DYI, with temp below freezing it's just too cold here to work on cars,and it was a pain pushing the dead car out and then back in of
    driveway to access my second car, I will try DYI when the weather allow.
    THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH FOR THE DYI INFO
