swampedout Posted December 21, 2019 Author Share Posted December 21, 2019 For autos to release the cylinder there is an open hole you push an awl or pick in. The retaining block just keeps the actuator in and aligned while supporting it for the wheel lock. It may also serve as an upper stop so you aren't yanking on the ignition switch itself. Not positive on that. Not sure about a MT though - it may match what you're describing. Thanks for the clarification. I put the wheel back on. Thought about taking more pictures while I had it pulled but I was juggling 2 truck repairs today. There is a block that fits on the back of the actuator. Mine came off and didnt seem like it would be held by the screw. But obviously my column is not the best standard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
