Default Sticky at the top of this thread is very helpful

Knock on wood..... Ouch!, it hasn't happened to mine. I actually have a CLB in the back of my car, just haven't put it in yet.

Check out the sticky thread on the column lock at the top of the page. When mine got stuck, I used the fuse method to unlock it. I now have a bypass so it never locks.
