On my SD and also on my Land Rover I can insert the key and get the steering wheel to unlock by moving the steering wheel to the right and left several times. Maybe yours works that way too? Kinda jimmy it back and forth several times and you can feel it unlock.

Try moving the shift lever slightly to the left while turning key. I had an 05 E320 that would do that but when I moved the shift lever over just slightly it would crank/run.

I tried that, it did not work :confused:

Thanks! But when the key is turned the steering wheel is completely free to turn any direction however much I want.

Do you know where that is located on the car?

Did you do the power test I suggested way back in post 2 ?

Not yet; bad weather and I've been ill. But I will do this, and let you know what I find.
