I did try the emulator and still the same results. I did notice the battery drains itself if I leave the car for a few days so a lot of time I just end up unplugging the battery. I ended up taking it to the stealership just to get a professional evaluation and they of course told me I need to replace the entire steering column for only 1296.50. I don't have that kind of bread laying around so was getting close to the point of scrapping the car.
But reading through this entire thread I'm going to look into ordering the OBD2-Usb cable and getting the needed software on the right computer and seeing if I can figure this thing out this weekend. I appreciate all of your post so far and would love any extra opinions before I get started this weekend.
