I think you’re putting the cart before the horse. Cycle the ignition lock cylinder. Are the rack and and actuator moving? Did manually manipulating the ignition switch make the truck start?

The column actuator certainly may not be the problem. Just something easy to check. You can try the other suggestions also.
