Replaced a 1997 328i steering colum with another from an automatic trans car that was a year or so newer--(this one is a manual)--everything fit fine until we noticed the ignition switch on the original colum had a pair of wires attatched to the outer part of the tumbler and the replacement colum does not..evidently this collar is part of a security or alarm/theft deterrent system??..and we cant get the car to crank using the key,and leaving the ignition on and jumping the solenoid only gets it cranking,but no spark.. MUST we get the exact colum and year,or can we get around this collar thing somehow and get this car OFF THE LIFT!.????...customer is not rich,so we tried saving by using a salvage yard colum..his original colum was locking up inside and the ignition key would spin in circles without catching and working,it also had turn signal switch and wiper switch issues,,so we decided to swap the whole colum out..
