So its been 5 years or so since I've actually taken one out, but my ignition switch is going out (odd to, The key will turn to the ON position, and it will turn to the starter position, but there is a dead spot in between making the ON position really small, and making it almost impossible to start the car...) So I need to get it out to see if I can fix it my hand or If I need to use my spare. Anyone have a HOW TO on how to get this thing out of the steering column? I have the column dropped and for the life of me cant figure it out.
thanks all! Andrew |

Cheap ones have too much play and will now allow the key to turn far enough to start the car!!!!!!!!!!! |
