Gang,
I pulled the steering wheel since the PO took off the tilt/scope lever and I thought I needed to hack into the column to find the problem. Once I looked into his "spare parts" box that came with the car, I figured out how the "scope" part works.
The car had problems engaging the starter so he bought a new ignition switch for it. I was going to replace the switch since I was inside the column already but I'm stumped at the turn signal switch plate.
I've taken the 3 screws off of it (and right behind it is the ignition lock switch). However the damn plate doesn't seem to want to come out even after removing the 3 screws. I unscrewed the turn signal lever a few times (there are 2 flats machined on it to fit an adjustable wrench on it, but then I noticed there is a set of wires that are connected to it, I didn't want to twist them off unscrewing the lever). On a Duster, there is one long single screw that acts as a pivot for the lever and attaches the lever to the plastic plate. However this Chrysler is not the same.
Any thoughts/tips?
I know the little silver square piece (9 o'clock position -ish) has something to do with it, just not sure. I really don't want to break anything on this car as parts aren't easy to come by locally.
