HELP working on s.c.

Had to take apart the steering column so I could fix the loose tilt mechanism. Now when I turn the key, the actuator that is supposed to move is not doing it's thing. It fell out when I was removing the collar from the column, but I did not see exactly how it was in there, and I need to know how to get it back in there so I can drive outta here before the sun sets! Any help greatly appreciated!!

Nevermind....Mcgyver drove past the house (Dad) and he fixed it with string.

Thanks though!

Done

Drove it. Everything works. Took just under 5 hours with minimal complications. First time. Not too shabby. The board helped me out a lot, there was some great info that I wouldn't have been able to do without. Great job everyone!
