Ok this has been going on for a while now, nothing serious, but it's getting annoying and I feel like all these problems are connected somehow.
First off, when I go to put on my turn signal, sometimes I'll get this loud, annoying buzzing sound when my steering wheel is in a certain position it seems like. I'll turn off my signal, and the loud buzzing will stop. Also, I notice ocassionally, (especially on hot days) when I put on my signal, a thin layer of smoke will rise from the steering column. Then, the last problem I've been having (which has been going on the longest) is the lighting around the driver's side. The cruise control buttons and on/off headlight knob will light up some nights, and others they won't. These little things are getting to be quite a headache. Has anyone had anything like this happen with their Explorer, or better yet know how to fix it? I'm thinking it's a wiring problem myself, but I'd appreciate anyone's input on the situation. Thanks.
