I have a 92 olds toronado trofeo w/console shift. I'm trying to remove the ignition switch from the lower steering column. I have evrything disconected, but can't remove it because there's a actuator mounted on the ignition switch. A cable from actuator runs back an around to shift console.How do I get the actuator off the ignition switch? I have a 92 olds service manual for my car and niether the actuator or the cable are shown.
