I have seen some posts here about removing fuse #25, and then fuse #29. Not sure of the details, but search under column lock. Good luck

Jerk the steering wheel to the left and the right (hard) at the same time cycling the key on and off.Be persistant and I can assure you it will work 99% of the time...
