Hello everyone,

I currently have two problems with my 2002 Acura RL's steering wheel.

My car would not start while the vehicle is on park. It would only start if I would pull the steering wheel into the direction that I initially drove in to a parking space, then turn on the ignition. It seems as if the steering wheel is on lock position like old cars but I feel that it is not the case. The Acura dealership said it was odd for it to do that but could not provide any further assistance.

Another problem is that the telescoping wheel does not function back/forth nor does it go up/down anymore. I looked at one previous message instructing that you would have to remove the cover to see if the motor's worn. Did that, everything looks great! Could it be the fuse?

If anyone would be able to provide any assistance, it would be greatly appreciated!
Eddie

 

Hi Frito. You should put this on the First Gen RL side. You'll have more luck with other owners possibly having problems with that gen car.

 

Oops, sorry Frito. I'm the one on the wrong side Lost my bearings there for a second flipping around the site.
