Title: Steering Wheel Lock Post by rich1959 on 09/17/06 at 17:02:07 Hello,        I am new to this forum, I just purchased a 2005 S40 and am having problems locking the steering wheel, I am following all instructions to the letter (turning key counterclockwise and pressing in and returning back to original position) but the key doesnt stay pressed in and the wheel wont lock. Wondering if others have experienced this. Thanks Rich

Title: Re: Steering Wheel Lock Post by SavageDude on 09/17/06 at 22:16:03 Ditto as Trippa. I have the same problem when I first brought her home. Jiggle the handle bar back and forth a little bit to get that lock stay locked.

Title: Me Re: Steering Wheel Lock Post by magicfairy on 09/18/06 at 17:55:06 Me too, I was convinced it wouldn't work, but my more knowledgeable other half told me to wiggle handlebars a little, as I locked / unlocked it. Works every time now, use it every day.

Title: Re: Steering Wheel Lock Post by Savage_Rob on 09/20/06 at 10:54:12 I just think it's way cool that someone put a steering wheel on their bike.  I'd love to see photos of it.

Title: Re: Steering Wheel Lock Post by rich1959 on 09/20/06 at 18:04:43 Thanks all for the advice, the lock works. Have been driving a cage for so long it must have taken over my mind :-) Rich
