Full details
The Milenco Classic Steering Wheel Lock is designed for vehicle owners seeking a robust physical deterrent against theft.

Troubleshooting
Lock is difficult to close
Ensure the steering wheel is in a neutral position and that no cables or other items are obstructing the lock's path. Check for any debris in the locking mechanism.
Key will not turn in the lock
Ensure the lock is fully aligned. Try gently wiggling the steering wheel to release any tension on the lock. Lubricate the lock mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant if it seems stiff.
Lock feels loose on the steering wheel
Re-position the lock and ensure it is clasped as tightly as possible. For very thin steering wheels, consider using a temporary shim (like a piece of cloth) for a snugger fit, though this is rarely necessary.
