Abstract: A steering column wire protector for securely positioning and protecting wiring with respect to a steering column while permitting both axial and rotational movement of the wiring relative to the steering column in response to adjustment of a steering wheel to which the wiring is connected. The wire protector includes a bracket fixed to the wall of the steering column and a carrier supporting and holding a portion of the wiring. A slide pin formed on the carrier cooperates with a guide track in the bracket to permit the carrier to slide axially along the bracket as well as to pivot relative to the steering column axis. The wiring is preferably taped to the carrier. The carrier and bracket can be removably joined for shipment and handling purposes.
