I did not use a steering wheel puller. After I pulled the nut out, I just sat bac in the seat and yanked straight back until the steering wheel came out. I have an 08, so it took a couple of good pulls to get it out. Probably could have just hit it with a little PB Blaster to loosen it up.

Default Getting the clock spring here took forever!

Fortunately, it will be here tomorrow. So I should be able to tear into it this weekend.
Watch out for the wench with the wrench!

Default Bad clock spring?

This is what I have figured is my problem. About a year ago my nephew was on my lap pretending to drive. started pulling on the wheel and blinkers and cruise control. He pulled the cruise and I head a nice little snap. Since then my horn or cruise hasn't worked, is it a bad clock spring? or possible else, or more?
