Hi Immy1,

Remove the upper and lower plastic covers around the switchgear.

Put the key in the ignition and rock the steering wheel left to right while trying to turn the key to the ACC position.

Under the barrel housing you will see a small round sprung loaded peg.

Push the peg in and pull the barrel out of the housing.

Key has to be in the ACC position to do this

Hope this helps you

:thumbsup:
