Toooo late.

So, this is where I am at.

I opened it up to reveal the switches. I press those down.. car goes to ACC, I remove the fuse... Doesn't work.

I guess it needs those switches to be down all the time for the fuse removal to work. The fuse removal just tells it not to engage anymore... right?

The key has to be in the on position then remove the fuse,but I have never done it this way with the steering lock open.

Yep, it was... I just had the board by itself hooked up so I could push the switches down and it worked... but when I let go of them it wouldn't.

So, I put the board back into the housing [minus the bottom plate] and now it works. I made sure that the locking bolt was in the position to keep the switches pressed.


Think I should take pictures of all of this while I have it open?

Very cool if this works to get the steering lock to work again to remove the fuse when the hitting with hammer method doesn't work
