Post subject: | Broken Ignition and Shift Lever. |
I got to my car this morning to find some someone had tried to steal my car. I found a 20 lb dumbbell sitting on my passenger seat, a broken pocket knife, a broken screw driver, my inside mirror smashed, pieces of my ignition switch on the floor and my shift lever snapped off! I guess I'm lucky the idiot was unsuccessful but was still left with some damage to the car, making it undrivable. The ignition lock cylinder needs to be replaced, that I already bought but I cannot figure out how to remove the old one. I got a steering wheel puller but with out being the electrical portion of my factory manual, I'm thoroughly confused. If anyone could take a look at the pictures below and give me some instruction how to remove it, I would very grateful. I need to get the car out of the place it's parked now. I think I need to remove the screw in top right, and stick a small screw driver down that hole but I can't grip the cylinder in anyway to pull it out. |

I think you need to remove the turn signal switch & top housing on steering column, then there should be a screw that holds ign. cyl. in place than you can use a screw driver to pry it out from the inside |

If you have the 1978 chasis-body service manual. Look at section 19 page 30 . Ignition key,lock and switch removal covered there. Not in electrical section. |
