Bunny rabbit almost cost me 3k

So my 2021 330i gave me an error earlier today about steering issues. Indeed the power steering didn’t work. So I pop the hood and what do I find ? A bunny rabbit sitting on the steering shaft.

I get rid of the bunny and find he ate the connector going into the steering shaft. It’s a short harness that goes to the electronic motor.

Call bmw thinking it’s just a small harness no big deal. Wrong. They can’t sell that harness it comes with the steering rack. So $3k for a new steering rack.

Google to the rescue. I didn’t wanna try to depin the connector because of it being steering related. So I found the same connector on a Nissan o2 sensor. Went to auto zone and bought it for $80 and soldered it in. Boom! I have steering. Fuck you bunny rabbit 😂
