Ignition Actuators Link Pin
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

Although rare, a known problem with the '92-04 column is the steel pin sliding out of the upper actuator (F2DZ3E723A) breaking the connection between it & the lower actuator (FODZ3E715A), resulting in the key spinning freely without operating the ignition switch (F4DZ11572B/F4DC11572AA). So it will stay in whatever position it was in when the pin fell out. Since I didn't think any kind of glue would hold, and the pin is too hard to knurl, the only thing I could think of was a steel washer as a retainer. I drilled it slightly undersized so the pin had to be hammered through, meaning it could never slide out of the washer. And the washer is captive between the plastic actuators.
