is there a way? that you can unlock the steering wheel without the key being turned or watever.

as some of you may already kno, my key will not turn at all in my ignition.
i have tried everything from jiggling the steering wheel and turning the key to putting graphite powder (it actually made the key slide in faster, and i can tell it wants to turn, but the damn steering wheel is locked HARD)

i currently think its my steering wheel lock that is not making the key turned.

is there a way i can unlock the steering lock?
and where is it located in my 04civiclx. thanks

what are some other problems that i can take consider?
please help guys.

 

I'm assuming your putting pressure on the steering wheel and turning it a little as your trying to turn the key.

 

yes that's what i have been doing. =[

pissing me off. lol.

 

not sure how to unlock your steering wheel but have you tried your spare key to see if it will turn?

 

i bought the car from a "ma&pa" dealership and it only came with one key and the keyless entry.

i currently don't have a spare.

 

hmmm that sucks. maybe a chiltons would describe how the locking mechanism works.

 

1)HAVE YOU EVERY DROP YOUR KEY TO HARD OR IN WATER?
2) ARE YOU UP HILL?
3) IS YOUR BATTERY DEAD?

well one day my moms lil toyota had the same problem but the automatic shifter was locked to and nothing would unlock cause the battery was dead. that was the first time i see some sh** like that.

 

wiggle the wheal as hard as u possably can wile someone else turns the key.maybe it will unlock

 

^ WHEEL,POSSIBLY,WHILE JUST BUSTING YOUR *****

 

ive dropped the key once, but it was a long time ago.

and i guess, i'll have some1 to help me unlock the steering wheel.

ive been forcing it by myself, since i live on my own.

but ya, this is weaksauce. lol.

 

and it wasn't me who locked the steering wheel, it was the stupid tow guy.
had to tow this **** to my house, and my street is sorta uphill but not really, haha.

would that make a difference with the lock?

 

Be sure to put pressure both ways when you try it most of the time they unlock by turning the wheel counter-clockwise

well first off why you had the car towed to you house? next in my moms car that day was really hard and it was on a lil hill guess cause the pressure but could be wrong.

 

had to tow it to my house, cuz it was late at nite and i didnt wna get it towed by some other fo0ls, or even worse, get jacked.

 

I'm not sure I'm comfortable with people sharing how to unlock a steering wheel because it's a possible security violation.

Best bet is to call the honda dealer and see what advice they have for you.
