okay so I was looking into doing outer tie rods on my Escalade so I raise the front end up on jack stands and while I went to wiggle the wheels left to right I noticed I was actually able to turn the wheels left and right. The key was not in the ignition or nothing and I was able to turn the steefing wheel as well wth! I'm still in need of outer tie rods but my main problem now is why the steering wheel does not lock any ideas of this problem possibly my ignition switch?
