Re: 240D lights problem

There is a clamp by the steering column... You have to loosen it... I think

you did.

Then there is a lock button just like that stubble that keeps your vacuum 
hose attached... at the front of the  column on that shaft where the locks

goes in. It is blocked by the dash panel. Just use a straightened wire 
hangler and fish and poke it in until the lock disengaged and that will 
allow the whole lock to slide out.

Ignition must be in position one to release the wire harness and to remove

the entire lock unit.
