Seized steering

[phatdaddy]

i would take the steering arm off the end of the cable. this will allow you to determine if it's the cable or the motor that is frozen. probably the cable. take the large nut that connects the cable to the steering tube off. try to spray some pb blaster in the tube, use a rubber mallet and see if you can tap the steering cable end out of the tube. depends on your hull, but sometimes you have to take the motor off the transom to completely remove the cable and clean. hope this makes sense
