One of the crucial parts of any vehicle, the steering wheel system, is responsible for controlling direction. The wheels of the car move in real-time as a result of the driver’s rotating motions. Like all other vehicle parts, it is not impervious to malfunctions and damages. So how can you unlock your steering wheel?

Insert the key into the ignition
Take your key and insert it into the ignition. If you are having trouble inserting the key, make sure it is the right one for your vehicle and that it is going in the right direction.

Apply gentle pressure to the key while turning the steering wheel left and right. This action aids in releasing the lock mechanism.
Turn the key
Turn the key to the “on” or “accessories” position while maintaining pressure on the steering wheel. You should feel the steering wheel unlock, giving you the freedom to turn it.
