HELP ME OUT!!! Steering Wheel Lock!

stopher · 02-16-2015, 10:44 PM

Anyone have a spare steering wheel lock? Or can you lend me yours for a quick hour. Just need to get my car started and then do the fuse pull and my life will be complete. And I will buy you dinner and beer.

You don't need to do that...

Beat it physically to release it, then start the car, and pull the fuse

I tapped it gently, didn't work. Hit it with a hammer, didn't work. Hit it harder, didn't work. Removed it, bashed it on the ground, and reinstalled it, didn't work.

Still one thing left to try: DIY - Steering lock internals workaround for those whose locks have already failed.

Mine is functional, installed, and fuse pulled. You're welcome to it, but you'd have to come to Manteca though...

Thanks for the offer Dave. I really appreciate it. Fortunately I was able to follow this guide and got my car up and running again: DIY - Steering lock internals workaround for those whose locks have already failed.
