First you need to go to the local parts store and get a steering wheel puller and a clock spring compressor tool. You can rent them but just cheaper to buy it and return it. I got mind like 35 bucks together.
You will remove the horn button just by pulling it towards you be careful not to rip the horn wire out. Next there may be a retainer clip remove it with a pair of needle nose pliers. Next get a breaker bar or a impact gun to back the center nut off. Once off use the steering wheel puller by inserting the threaded bolts into the threaded holes directly beside the center pin. ease the puller onto the center pin and tighten down until the steering wheel starts to move back towards you continue until off. On some trucks there is a steel plate covering the housing to the left side and towards the top are two small torx screws remove them and remove the cover. Next grab your clock spring compressor and install it similar to the way you did the wheel puller you will tighten down the center bolt slightly decompressing the clock spring. as you compress the clock spring look to the center there is a small retainer clip that looks like it is made into the center pin pry the clip off making sure not to damage it and remove the compressor tool, remove the clock spring making sure to pay attention on how it comes apart you can put it all back together. Remove the turn signal switch should be 3 phillips head screws. You may need to disconnect the horn wire at this point it just turns slightly and pulls out. After you remove the clock spring you will see the lock cylinder body, follow the body towards the center pin. There will be a small torx bit or a phillips screw to it will be silver and very shinny at the end of the lock housing remove it and slide the lock cylinder out. Install the new one and reverse the steps.
hope this helps...........good luck!

SOURCE: How do you remove the interior door panel of a 4

On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge.

How to replace a hazard switch in 2004 olds alero

I know in 2004 models, The multi-function switch is in your steering wheel. It's the signal stalk and wiper stalk. It's a one piece unit.


If you take off the top half of the steering column cover, you can access the connection for the switch. Unplug it and see if the noise continues.

I have a 2004 Alero. Every time I put another horn on, it gets stuck and won't stop blowing until I beat the pad on the steering wheel, by then the horn and fuse is blown out. How do I fix this problem?

Either by replacing the actual horn switch assembly or the wire that runs down the steering column. Sounds like the switch is bad but somtimes the wires short to groung causing the horn to work. Depending on how hard you beating the steering wheel could tempory fix either problem.

I have a 2004 Oldsmobile Alero and the horn has stopped working. I have checked the fuse and it looks good. I pulled the horn off and wired a button from the horn to the battery and found that the horn...

Usually it is in the center hub of steering wheel and it has to be removed to gain access. Once there you will see the spread out switch and it is possible to just clean the contacts and restore the unit back to operation. I did it with Mazda.

What causes a thumping noise when driving a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero and when turning the steering wheel?

It depends on where the sound is coming from, but the most likely suspect would be a worn tie-rod end. There is most likely excessive wear that is permitting movement of the tie-rod end and is thus causing the thumping sound when turning. That is when it would be most prevalent. Sorry for your trouble and I hope this helped. Best wishes.
