so i fixed the cigarette lighter with an original replacemetn and it works. also got the under dash/door light on the console above the radio which works to work. However, in removing the center console and pushing it sideways towards the steering wheel, the ignition will not turn, the yello dash and red dash light and radio now do not work. ugh! I turned the key and after 2 turns instead of only going 1/3 of the way over and cranking the engine, the key does a full 180degrees and sometimes if i wiggle the wires behind the steering column the lights will go on and the radio too. So...questions are:
1. How do i get the darn plastic housing off the steerign wheel to see inside. it's plastic and I am afraid to crack it as everything gets brittle with age
2. Do I need to replace the ignition or something behind it? And if so do i need new car keys?
3. Seems like I may have pulled the wires enough to pull them away from the ignition switch in the steering column. Probably so old that they did not like that very much but am willing to listen to advice at this point because my baby was a runner until an hour ago!
thanks!
