No, steering lock is a little pin that activates in the steering wheel when the key is removed and the steering wheel is then turned to 90 degree angle. Sometimes you need to jolt the steering wheel to the left and / or right whilst trying to turn the key in order to unlock it.

Which Fuse in a 1996 Toyota 4Runner controls Rear tailgate window? Looking for a Diagram, no longer have cover

It may not be the fuse! Try a few things first:

1. The wiper is in the same circuit. If it is lagging off the locked position (up), it may disable the rear window. Carefully push the wiper arm to the lock position (where it sits when it isn't wiping ;) ). Try the window.

2. If that doesn't work, behind the driver's seat is a relay board for that window. Check it.

3. Beside the fusebox there are two relays. Take something thin, but firm (short piece of thick wire, toothpick etc) and push it carefully into the hole in the relay to reset it.

By the way, if one of those worked, let us know, but still do what I suggest in 3 and I'll do my best which means you'll know which fuse is which if something else happens.

3. You still want to check the fuse? If you don't know someone with a similar vehicle, i.e. take a picture of their fusebox cover, or you don't want to buy a new cover (it's a good idea and you know it :P ) then post a picture of the fusebox so I can be sure I'm sending you a picture of the layout of the correct fusebox ;)

(There are a lot of different layouts depending exactly on the model so I don't want to post pics of all of them! See why I suggested some other methods of solving the problem?)

How do i locate the door lock relay for a 2004 toyota corolla

According to Don r : "The relays are in the fusebox under the hood. There's a fusebox on the driver's side kick panel, there's another one behind the change drawer on the left end of the dash and there's another fuse and relay box behind a panel on the passenger side below the dash. Chilton's Auto Repair manual will show you these. Look in your owner's Manual too. " According to mtran2988: "So I know this sounds very silly, but I had this problem for a while as well. What I did to fix it for a while, was open the fuse box in the car (under the steering wheel) and remount the fuse for the power lock. After that all the door's locks started working again. Like I said, i know it sounds very silly... but that's what I did and it started working. I feel like trying this might save people some hours. Mind you, I don't have very great technical knowledge of the mechanics of a car.. just a persevering DIY'er." I hope that helps!

Ware is the fuse for Citroen c4 2006 power steering

If your power steering is stiff try this
turn your ignition on and off 3 times as this is an issue with citroens and this usually cures the problem
also check the power steering fluid.
If you still want to know the location of the power steering pump fuse check your user manual / handbook as they are listed in there
Fusebox location
fuse use and location in the box
fuse rating in amps.
Hope this helps.

No tail lights no radio no interior light no central locking, no dash board lights

This looks like a blown fuse. You will have to check the fuses, I'd suggest to start with the high amp fuses located in the fuse box hidden between the battery and the left fender, underneath a larger fuse box containing lower amp fuses.
You will see in one row (front of car to back): one fuse in an orange housing, space, 6 fuses. You are probably looking for fuses number 4 (70 A) or 8 (60 A).

If these aren't blown, check the rest - there's quite a bunch of them... As, at this point, you will already have reached the underhood fusebox with 'lower amp' fuses, you can start with the fuses located there. The third fusebox is under the panel you would be able to touch with your left knee while sitting in the driver's seat if you moved forward (if you have your steering wheel on the LH side of the car).

Good luck!

Trying to jump my wifes vehicle, when finished my hhr had no power steering

When jumping the HHR, be sure to use ONLY the labeled Positive and Negative connection points. Improper jumping will cause the main EPS fuse to blow. This is fuse #1, 60A in the underhood fuse box. Also check fuse #19, 2A in the inside console fusebox.

1997 plymouth voyageur locks lock and unlock and interior lights flicker on and off while driving

The "BCM" module on your van has become unreliable.
The BCM is the "Body Control Module" that all these systems go through. The issue is that these are cold soldered and after a time the solder joints break on the computer connection. It is located behind the fusebox underneath the steering wheel.
If you know someone who can solder. You can use an 8mm and a 10mm socket to remove the BCM. Open it up and resolder the joints with a soldering iron. After that everything should be fine.
It is easier than it sounds.

BODY CONTROL MODULE
REMOVAL
Disconnect battery negative cable.
Remove lower steering column cover and knee blocker reinforcement.
Disconnect two wire connectors from bottom of Body Control Module (BCM) Body Control Module .
Remove bolts holding junction block (fuse Panel) to dash panel mounting bracket.
Remove junction block from mounting bracket.
Remove screws holding BCM to junction block.
Slide BCM downward to disengage guide studs on junction block from channels on BCM mounting bracket.
Remove BCM from junction block.
Re-solder Main connection points
INSTALLATION
Reverse the preceding operation.
