The steering column has be dropped down, not out but down. The ignition switch is on the left side, top of column halfway down. There will be a rod going down the side into it. Make sure you line if up the same way the old one was when you change it.

Here are diagrams to help you see how to change the ignition switch out.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers.
