1969 Pontiac Lemans with steering column apart

First remove the horn pad. With the horn pad remover, remove the nut that secures the steering wheel to the shaft. Connect a steering wheel puller to the steering wheel and tighten the puller's bolt to remove the steering wheel.

All GM steering columns in this year are the same part with just minor diffs in switches. Follow the instructions at the link Illustrated tilt steering column disassembly

at most auto store you can buy a Haynes or Chilton for you make, model and year of car for around $20.00

This is a problem I have with my 04 Pontiac also. I have found that this problem can stem from a contact switch located in the steering column. The switch can just be dirty or can have failed. The part after some research is just over $100 but the labor part Iam unsure of as it requires the steering column to be taken apart. I have been unwilling to attempt this myself as of yet and have been dealing with the clicking sound (louder music seems to help with that too) Hope this is helpful

you remove steering wheel, remove turn signal unit and then you can remove the cylinder with a torx head but and you dont need to have a key.

Check out faxonautoliterature. They have the original Pontiac service manual for your car, also wiring diagrams. This should help get you going again. I've used them before and had excellent service. Hope this helps.

the signal flasher should be under the dash on the RIGHT SIDE OF THE STEERING COLUMN clipped to the dash carrier
it has been awhile so i'm not a 100% sure i know a 1990 sunbird is there
hope this helps

The ignition switch is in the steering column.You need to be very careful when working with the steering wheel because of the air bag.If your are not familiar with taking apart a steering column with an air bag system then you should have a certified technician do it.

firstly tighten in sequence to 20Nm all round, then tighten to 30Nm all round,then tighten 90 degrees all round, and finally tighten a further 90 degrees all round. if you taken head off you should replace gasket or just use gasket sealer if you cant replace, just replace the head bolts, dont reuse or they may break
