It could be on your dash panel or possibly between the seats. Without a make or model, no one will ba able to help you. Consult you vehicle manual.
Round, metal, silver colored, about 1 inch in diameter and 1 inch deep. Will have 3 blade connectors. It can also be green plastic.
I've never heard of a crack in the column but since it has something to do with the steering, I would have it at least looked at.
Clicking inside the steering column on the 1998 Plymouth Voyager sounds like a steering pump problem. It could also be that the steering box needs to be replaced. This should be looked at by a reputable mechanic as soon as possible.
I'm trying to fix my truck myself, and I am a beginner. If I knew what exactly a steering column looked like I might be able to repair it myself.
If you do not keep your power steering fluid topped off, and/or do not change it once a year, your steering column will most likely start burning from friction of the steering rod and column. The best thing you could do is take it to a mechanic, to see how much damage you've done by not topping off your steering fluid. This is something explained in every owner's manual, but not often read. This is how most mechanics make their money, by people not topping off their power steering fluid. If it isn't looked at soon, then your steering could go out, and you could crash.
The horn wire going to the steering column is undoughtly shorting out. Have it looked at as the steering wheel has to come off etc.
I looked everywhere in the engine compartment, did not find anywhere to check the level of fluid, much less where a power steering pump was! Does that year model even have one?
Yes. The adverb everywhere is an adverb of place, and tells where she looked.
The manual says it's to the right of the steering column, but ours was to the left while sitting in the driver seat. Our flasher is approximately 1"x"1x2" and is blue with 5 fat male prongs and one skinny male prong. We already had taken off the plastic shield below the steering column which are both star or nut drivers, and we had already taken off the hood release (two small bolts), then we had also already taken off the metal shield cover under the plastic shield, maybe 6 bolts we took off with a nut driver in a battery drill. You can see in plain sight the blue flasher. First you have to slip it off of the plastic part that is plugged into the metal frame. Do not rip it off the frame, it slides off. Then you have to release the plastic tab to slide the flasher off it's base. That's it for removal. Plug in the new part and re-assemble. I wonder if we could have changed this part without dismantling the underdash. It wasn't hard to do, but maybe it can be done with a mirror. Our new flasher did not have the skinny prong, and I guess it wasn't needed. Part number 5L5z-13350-AA. After all of this, the turn signals still did not work. Our short is in the steering column. We wiggled the blinker arm around to get it out of whatever bad track it was in, and the blinkers work with the old flasher installed.
83 cutlass is either in the steering column (down low away from the turn signal probably, or in the column "multifunction switch", possibly on the floor, but one would assuem you have looked. Relentless
i looked everywhere on the internet and found it to be nonrenewable
I looked in the fuse box under the hood or in the side nothing there. I didn't see it under the steering wheel but it is kinda dark under there so i may have missed it..... any ideas?
