Pull the B+ off the coil and then unhook the battery.  Easiest fix is a replacement column.  1984-87 C/K and 88-91 R/V series is all the same.

Changing the lock cylinder is simple and inexpensive. You need a few tools that you can either rent or purchase at any auto parts store or harbor freight. Look at the service manuals for reference.
