Having Trouble Removing the Steering Wheel

[Chambers]

Hi all, When removing the steering wheel after you remove the 19mm bolt behind the face, how do you remove the steering wheel? Its splined but it wont budge, does anyone have any ideas to help remove it? I have the steering wheel that has the cruise control buttons on the 9 and 3 o'clock positions.

Also, I found the reason my cruise control doesn't work, its because there is no plug for it behind the face, the buttons have the harness that should connect to a plug under the wheel, but there is only a plug for the horn, has anyone else ran into this?

Thanks.
