Keyav8r Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Does anyone have a part number for the wire lock ring that fits in the groove on the steering wheel shaft and holds the locking plate in place? The little #<\%€+¥~% ran away and hid somewhere while I was trying to put it all back together. I assume it's the same part number for 86 to ? Cherokees.

cruiser54 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 They're common as belly buttons. Try the HELP section at your local parts store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Jeep p/n is 2925062. $4.76 from http://www.chryslerpartsdirect.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyav8r Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 Thanks, Don. Got that number from one of Birmingham dealers, but none of them have the part. They are all at $6.10 with the ring available Tuesday. I'll order from the nearest one because I'm sure the shipping would be more than $2. My alternative is to sweep the garage with a magnet.

Keyav8r Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 As usually happens, right after I ordered one I found the old one. It was stuck on the magnet on the back of the trouble light. I'll wait for the new one and put the old one somewhere if I ever need it - and then forget where I put it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54bobby Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 what job where you doing? tilt wheel repair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyav8r Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 The original job was to change the multifunction switch because I thought it was the reason for my cruise control malfunction. Yes, I know the stalk is supposed to just pull right out of the column and the new one plug right back in. Went to P&P yesterday and easily pulled one out of a 92 XJ column. When I pull on mine it moves about 1/8" (or less) and hits a hard stop. I pulled the steering wheel and lock plate to see what the problem was. Still couldn't get it out. I ran the checks on the switch from the manual and both my old one and new one check out right. it appears there is a problem in the wiring between the switch and the ECM. So, I'm putting it back together and will work out the wiring issue later. All it affects is the cruise control and while that's something I'd like to work, I don't have to have it to enjoy the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
