    And I can't get my fat creaking hand up there!!!

    I'm going to try and get my 11 year old son to get his hand up there to plug it in so I don't have to pull the lower column apart.
    Holy Crap.It fell off the jack & unplugged the brake interlock switch. I thought Random stuff like that only happens to me.:eeeeeek: Glad you fingered it out Larry.

      No, I think when I was jockeying the steering column around during the rack swap, it came unplugged. My son crawled under there last night and got it plugged back in, I need to get back up under there and make sure it clicked all the way in. Probably wasn't clicked in all the way from the factory.
