NOTE: If a NEW column lock module has been installed, a new Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) must also be installed, then a diagnostic scan tool MUST be used to initialize the new module before the vehicle can be operated. See Electrical/Vehicle Theft Security - Standard Procedure .
  1. Remove the steering column. Refer to Steering/Column - Removal .
  2. Drill a 12.7 mm (1/2 inch) hole in the left corner above the "M" of the Mercedes Benz stamping.
  3. Using a pick turn the gear counter clockwise until the gear can not be turned any more.
  4. Insert a suitable drift or pin punch (no more than 4 mm (5/32 in.) in diameter) into each release hole (1) on the module mounting bracket. Insert each drift or punch until it bottoms and leave in place. This will depress the two spring clips that secure the shaft lock module to the mounting bracket.
  5. Slide (and wiggle) the module toward the base of the column far enough to disengage the module from the mounting bracket.
  6. Remove the module from the steering column.
  7. Disconnect the wiring harness connector and remove the shaft lock module.
