If anyone is wondering how he unlocked the steering wheel, he drilled out the spring that holds the locking mechanism in the locked position (there's a hole on the underside of he housing near the ignition switch).
My problem is that the pin that comes out into the ignition doesn’t turn when I turn the key. Even tho it will pop out and go into the ignition slot, it doesn’t turn 😢😅
Take the ingition switch out and start the car like that, ive just bought a new barrel hopefully its the right bit as i think the cam is gone that turns the switch
at the start of the video i notice that you try to start the car , but you dont have position 1 ,2 and 3 on the ignition, key just spinning of course it cant start, good solve for the problem

I have the same problem did you figured it out?
@ yeah man, I had to order a new pin for about £11 on eBay. Kept the same key etc
Thank you for this video, brother 👍 It really helped me 🙏
I don’t see that ignition part in my car like that and my car thinks it’s in the audition. The entire time is stuck in the key comes in and out.
Mine flips to the off position if you dont hold on to the key which is definitely a problem when driving
battery still gets drained even though no crank?
You are a heaven sent..ty.
My car started a few times with this method. But now it doesn’t start at all??? What do I do?
Did you fix it?

Same
Looking for a fix

It took me 10 minutes to fix it after watching the video. Just take it apart and see if you can fix it the same way.
