The car is currently being rebuilt and I went to power the car yesterday to add a few bits to the fuse box on the ignition circuit.
Everything that should have 12v power does and the clocks light up. Unfortunately I get the ever common turn steering wheel message View attachment IMG_0615.jpeg
The steering column isn’t the original as a friend needed one for his but replaced mine after removing my lock module. He had to remove the lock mechanism while it was locked but said he did so carefully and this has now been fitted to the new column.
The steering lock isn’t engaged and the car won’t try to start. Would it be right to think the lock is knackered and needs to be replaced? Is there a way of trying to bring them back to life at all? I can remove the bolt and drop it from the column still.
Any help would be appreciated. The engine is currently out of the car but all ground connections are made? I don’t think this would affect the ignition mode although could be wrong
