Hi all, my pains continue, now the gear shift selector snapped off from the column. Was quite hard to move the shifter previously, now the metal mechanism is broken along with the plate that holds it to the steering column, what a mess!!
I would appreciate any help or info as to how to remove the plastic shroud from the column. Do i have to remove the steering wheel?? if so how do i remove that as it has the airbag and i don't wanna sore face?
I removed a torx screw from below the shroud thinking the top and bottom parts would come apart but its a pain and i cant seem to get them apart, looks to me like i'll need to remove the wheel in order to get the 2 parts of the shroud to come off and also clear the plastic ignition piece where the key goes in order to replace the shifter mechanism. Im in mexico and dont speak much spanish, haynes manuals are all in spanish here so im stuck. Truck is a 1998 4x4 sierra ext cab. Thanks in advance for any info or help or pics.
