Insert the ignition key into the ignition lock cylinder. This will move the shaft lock module locking bolt to the unlocked position. Leave the key in the lock cylinder while the shaft lock module is being removed.
Insert a suitable drift or pin punch (no more than 4 mm (5/32 in.) in diameter) into each release hole (1) on the module mounting bracket. Insert each drift or punch until it bottoms and leave in place. This will depress the two spring clips that secure the shaft lock module to the mounting bracket.
Slide (and wiggle) the module toward the base of the column far enough to disengage the module from the mounting bracket.
Remove the shaft lock module from the steering column.
Disconnect the wiring harness connector and remove the shaft lock module.
