Steering wheel won't lock after New steering rack Put in


swamp

Recommended Posts

Hey guys and gals 

 

Just wondering if there's anything I can do about my steering wheel no longer locking. 

 

I recently got a new steering rack put in for a wof as the garage reckoned it was leaking from within. Replaced ps pump last year. 

 

The two plastic bits over my steering column were previously pretty loose but now kinda rub on the steering wheel when I turn it. 

 

Steering wheel lock is a good anti theft device... But working power steering feels so stiff and much safer than the light sloppy steering im used to. 

 

Thoughts please on how I can get my steering wheel lock back? :)

Yep that's an ignition related problem, take the plastic shroud off and take a look, couple of bolts hold the ign on, chances are they've cut them to look like a big flat Screw (they are "Shear-bolts so they are usually smooth / hard to get out and also an anti-theft device)

 

might want to take ign off via those two bolts & have a look see if the tab is coming out when you remove key

 

or if the new column has a the slot to lock it in the right place

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
