Default Power Tilt Binding

SHIZNIT!!!!! I let a friend (a somewhat heavy fella) use my car yesterday and I plainly forgot that he uses steering wheels to assist him in exiting vehicles. LOL.

Anyway, this morning I get into my car and stick the key into the ignition and the steering wheel doesn't move. All it does is make sounds from the little motors inside. I am wondering if it could be repaired simply or is it an involved task? I don't know how to access the inner parts or how to take off the cover, etc. To remove the steering wheel, etc, seems like a tough task since I don't know anything about that kind of stuff. Somebody HELP!!!

Used it with our 93 SC4, and works like a charm.

I really appreciate you two, GRAND_LS and MeanLex....

I followed the procedures in the thread and it's as good as new. It's actually quieter in operation now. Thanks again
