Remove airbag fuse. Disconnect battery. Remove two/4 screws (usually Torx-forget the size but rather large maybe T7) from the back side of the steering wheel. Remove airbag assemble . Carefully disconnect the harnesses. Remove the large steering wheel retaining nut. Using a steering wheel puller remove the steering wheel. At this point you may need to remove the shroud from the steering column. Usually t 10 or T15 screws. Remove retaining screws from the multi function switch. Carefully un plug and remove. Installation is reverse. Highly recommend a haynes or Chilton repair manual for this job. Steering wheel puller can be rented from most auto parts chain stores.

1999 oldsmobile 88 headlights wont shut off

Pull this circuit breaker till you can find the problem. Check for applicable trouble codes. You have a lighting control module, I can't troubleshoot that component from here.

you have two options, your ligth dimmer is bad or your bulbs are at fault, first found your dimmer unpluged and bypass or jump it, if your ligths work you need a new switch if not the problem is in your cluster maybe bulbs.
