68 barracuda steering colum schematic

Take streering coluom off n replace the switch. Not exp. or hard

Turn signal switch is shorting out very common to go out as it is a wear and tear item over the years.

i had trouble in my ford pickup the wireing in the stearing colum shorted what caused it was the slack in the tilt ajustment got worn when i put my hands on the steering wheel it pulled down and streached the wires. try ajusting the steering wheel up 1 notch and you may have to replace the wireing in the steering colum

if they tried to pull the wheel lock located in the steering colum. they may have damaged the key sensor that read you security codes off the key. which means you`ll need to replace the key sensor in the colum. Unless they pulled a wire off under the steering colum. look down the steering colum and up underneath and see if there are any plugs out. PS some cars are designed of extra accessories which case you may find a few plugs away from the colum that aren`t connected to any thing these won`t be the issue but.

Its probably something in the harness going up the steering column to the key switch.

I would check your brake light swich located under dash just fallow your brake pedle with a test light see if you have power going to it slitely press brake pedle see if other side of switch has power (key on car not running) if not try ajusting it by pulling on it or unscewing it if all checks out ok replace turn signal switch disconnect battery remove center part of steerring remove center bolt with steerring puller pull steering wheel with locking plate puller pull locking plate remove turn signal handle emergency button three scews holding turn signal under dash fallow steering colum disconect wires on right side (passenger side) tape a long wire to end of connector pull turn signal without pulling tape wire all the way out so you can tape it to new turn signal wire connector to be able to pull wires back down steerring colume (you might have to losen steerring colume and bracket two scews under dash four on steering colume)

Reset it again it probably did not take

I'd say before doing anything costly have a look at your power steering fluid level and make sure it's topped up, most of the time a stiff steering wheel is cause by either a low fluid level or faulty power steering pump ( in this case the engine would make noise every time you turn the wheels). Hope it helps and please don't forget to rate the answer if it was helpful, thanks!

There are 3 tilt colum screws deep inside the colum, it's common for them to come loose and eventually cause wiring problems. special tools are required to thighten the torx head screws.

Used colums for that year are cheap however.

u dont have a pump its a electric streer , one problem could be the motor on the colums witch they are known to have a couple problems , or maybe just a bad conection
