How do you replace the ignition switch in a 1989 Chevy G 20 van?

Answer 1

Now i know i am in ka ka first of all ..IF you don't have a schematic of a stearing wheel and you don,t have the proper or special tools for taking the stearing wheel apart you should not touch this one. BUT here goes first OFF you will have to take the stearing wheel off no problem ok you have the puller that's good ,now you need to compress the plastic ring so you can take the C clip off of the stearing colume NOW REMEMBER HOW YOU TOOK IT APART because your going to have to put it all back together .Now that you have gotten this far and have taken out the signal and cansoling cams on the right side over top of the ignition modual is a funny looking screw that's right that's what holds the ignition modual in . That funny looking spring well remember how that goes in that's for your beeper When you take that long screw out you will be able to pull the ignition modual out see that grove in the side of it that's where the screw goes that holds it in. be careful and replace everything just like you took it apart.BUT NOW THAT YOU HAVE GOTTEN THIS FAR and have not screwed up Is your wheel a TILT and does it wiggle around a little doesnt feel to good AH Well the next step is to go one or two steps further and take the wheel apart even further YOU WILL NEED a special tool for this but your napa store should have it about $12.00 for taking the screws out that hold the tilt together when you have this all out you will be able to tighten up the torx screws that hold your tilt together the best thiung that you can do for yourself if you have gotten this far is to apply lock tight to those screws.The next best thing to your mind is a schematic drawing get one blown up and good luck.Try getting an old colum from a wrecker or auto dismantler and practice on that one Wayne
