• Air bag deployment
• Personal injury
• Unnecessary SIR system repairs
In order to avoid the above conditions, observe the following guidelines: • Refer to SIR Component Views in order to determine if you are performing service on or near the SIR components or the SIR wiring.
• If you are performing service on or near the SIR components or the SIR wiring, disable the SIR system. Refer to Disabling the SIR System.

1. Disable the SIR System. Refer to Disabling the SIR System in SIR.
Important It is not necessary to remove the steering wheel to access the lower trim cover screws. The screws can be easily accessed by rotating the steering wheel.

2. Remove the following components from the steering column:

Sorry in copy, read only, no pictures. I'd check voltage and ground for headlamps, first.

is the lock assembly in the car or out?
there are 2 jobs here, removing the assembly
and after that, attacking the lock it self.???????

any lock smith can rebuild the lock, proper
it has pins that are pressed out.
it can even be rekeyed.

the remove assembly is covered in the FSM, no books?
alldata.com covers that.
it really is an Isuzu. impulse.

my guess is its job 1, assembly out.
so toss coin lands on job1
(on most cars, steering wheel must be removed)
once that is done, its obvious from there, right? that clamp there with the antitamper screws? then must be removed. and replaced new..

NOTE Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

CAUTION Be sure that the electrical contact of the turn signal and multifunction switch assembly (2) rests on the turn signal cancel cam assembly.

CAUTION The abrasion sleeve must be installed back onto the steering column wire harness assembly. The ignition lock cylinder case wires and connector must be hanging out of the middle of the abrasion sleeve.

Unfortunately there are some special tools required you will need to get to the turn-signal switch. Below is the procedure for replacing the turn-signal switch. Generally you can rent the puller from a local auto parts jobber or you can purchase one.
Good luck, let me know how it goes.
Regards,

Many vehicles use a turn signal switch that is separate from the multifunction switch. The steering wheel will have to be removed to gain access to the turn signal switch on these vehicles. The following procedure is a common method of turn signal switch replacement:

• Place the fender covers on the fenders.
• Disconnect the negative battery cable.
• Remove the steering column trim.
• Remove the horn pad from the steering wheel.

• Remove the steering wheel and horn collar.
• Use a suitable puller to remove the steering wheel.
• With a suitable compressor, compress the preload spring to the lock plate. Compress the spring only enough to remove the snap ring.

To remove the snap ring, use the compressing tool to relieve the pressure against the snap ring. Courtesy of General Motors Corporation, Service Technology Group.

• Use a pick and a small flat blade screwdriver to remove the snap ring.
• Remove the lock plate, horn contact carrier, and spring.
• Remove the bolts at the upper steering column support and the upper mounting bracket from the column.
• Disconnect the turn signal wiring connector.
• Wrap tape around the wire and connector.
• Remove the hazard warning knob from the column.
• Remove the switch retaining screws and remove the switch.
