Putting new igintion in and need to know what to do after pulling the steering wheel? Thank

remove the steering wheel. then remove the little round black cover. after that you at the turn signal assymbly, remove it by the 3 philips screws gently pull it out. to the right of the steering shaft youll see a screw right under the ignition assembly . put the key in the ignition rotate it to on remove the screw and pull the igintion cylinder out. put the new one in and replace the screw. some have a push pin inplace of the screw simply push it in and pull cylinder out. hope that helps you.

Maybe the coupling on bottom of column that connects to the rack and pinion came loose. The coupling may be held tight by a pinch bolt.

if the sterring wheel is in the locked possion try pulling the wheel very hard to either the right or left while trying to turn the key

Try turning the steering wheel back and forth like a giggle while turning the igintion by hand.Iunderstand the wheel wont turn but it will a little each way.If this doesn't work take the lower piece of the colume of to get access to igintion.Hope this helps.

Pull the horn cap off, it should have plastic tabs that lock into a metal cylinder underneath, but will pop off pretty easily. That metal cylinder should be held on by 3 screws. Under those screws is a plastic washer and your contact ring. If you're replacing a steering wheel and need to pull the old one buy, rent or borrow a steering wheel puller. There's nothing worse than having to explain to your buddies how you broke your nose removing a steering wheel. They puller looks like a crows foot. It has three slots on one side and one on the back side. You can use three bolts to attach it to the steering wheel. I wrench will work to screw down the large bolt in the center and the steering wheel will come right off. Put a new steering wheel on, new contacts, and you should be set to go.

ok first thing first take steering wheel off its kinda hard to do anyway take steering wheel off u might loosen the nut on the steering half way off and put your knees on back of steering wheel then hit nut with hammer as u pull up with your knees or buy a wheel puller cost around 20.00 but id rather just use hamer and my knees after u get wheel off they will be a lock wheel its black in the center is a meatal o ring clip u have to push down realy hard on that round lock and take o ring out after u get it out pull the black ring lock off then the plastic horn thing out then u will see the turn sng switch they are three screws in it taake them out dont take wires loose leave them just pull it out let it hang down thenu will look down see on back of lock mist have a screw there lossen it then take switch out slide the new one in then fun part putting all back together

You will need some tools like a steering wheel puller and a few other tools. Take the cover off the steering wheel and the centre nut from the steering wheel. Use the remover to pull the steering wheel. Take the shroud off of the column and you will be able to see what is holding the switch onto the column. Remove the wiring harness and remove screws for the turn signal switch. There might be a star with a pin in the centre. Put the new switch on and put it all back together.

Replace the ignition barrel.Good luck.
