We changed the steering column and everything went smoothly except for the fact that now, it will not let me put the car into drive or anything other gear. Is there something missing here or have we did something to cause this. It was shifting just fine, until we changed the steering column. Oh by the way everything you told us to do with re-setting the anti theft worked out fine. vivian
