    Steering wheel=Hamster wheel

    Not that I have anything against hamsters or the wheels that bear their names but my steering wheel has started squeeking and it's driving me nuts. I dropped some white lithium grease around the washer/nut/uppermost steering wheel contact area, no change. Then I sprayed a little pb blaster around the area, I know it's not a great lubricant but it'll get to areas I can't really get with a grease gun, no change.
    Are there any other areas I should check? Perhaps further down the column?

      Horn contacts. Clean them up, sand them with a bit of sand paper and apply some dielectric grease. Should fix the problem.
