Steering knuckle backed out. Went to fix it and now the ignition is stuck on
6 Attachment(s)
I have a 1988 Jeep comanche and I went to tighten up the four screws around the steering knuckle because the have backed there self's out and followed this video.
[URL="http://youtu.be/DqGNc7gE3uo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqGNc7gE3uo[/URL] I tightened up the screws and some how when I was putting everything on and trying to light the tumbler cam with the gear on the right I did something and now the right turn signal is on and the car. I dont know if it is in acc. mode or what. Al I can urn the cam all the way to the start position and the truck wont start. Im really confused now and dont know what I did or how to get it off. Here are some pictures to help. Oh and this also fell out when I was taking it all off and I dont know how it came out. I know It is part of the key buzzer I believe. Attachment 372438 How does this go in?? and does everything look right in these pictures? Attachment 372439 Attachment 372440 Attachment 372441 Attachment 372442 Attachment 372443 |
Dunno free bump for ya though.
Take it all back apart and play with it some more. |
Thanks, that's what I have been doing for the past day.... Hopefully I can get this fig out.

There's a rod that pushes on the ignition switch. Make sure it is seated in the ignition module on the base of the column. You can get at it from underneath with a flashlight and some patience. Mine is a little stiff since I fixed the column. That rod bends easily.

Does it also
Operate the turn signals and brights? |
so now I got all of it fixed but I cant get the turn signal working right?

Got this:
REASSEMBLY Why, it's just the reverse of dissassembly, of course. Yeahright. There are a couple of things to watch for. The dimmer switch actuator is a little difficult to line up, and it can go together wrong. I know. Make sure that the oddly shaped end of the actuator (on the left in the photo) slides up through the main housing and is free to be moved by the arm on the turn signal lever. Another thing to check is that the lock stud spring doesn't get caught in the housing when you're putting it back on. If you do this, one of two things will happen. Either the "Start" position of the lock assembly won't spring back or the steering wheel lock won't work when you put it all back together. From here: http://www.chevyasylum.com/column/tiltcol.html It's a GM column btw. ETA: That spring you thought was part of the key buzzer is actually part of the hazard flasher switch. |
