I repaired a steering column on 1997 Lexus LS400. The column would not go down when I put in the key, or when I pushed down on the switch. All I would hear was a sound of a striped gear. Instead of paying Lexus the $600 for the part, I just repaired the gear myself. This is a very simple fix, and will take you only 20 - 30 minutes.
Tools needed:
8mm and 10mm socket and ratchet
Phillips head screw driver
some type of hook or hanger to pull the gear out
standard Zip-Tie to use as a spacer...or a water hose washer.
I hope you enjoy this video and it solves your problem with little cost and effort. If you want to thank me, please look at my photography www.JTpics.com and buy some beautiful pictures.
