Had an issue with my left hand signal shorting out when the tilt steering was in the down posistion, flasher worked when the tilt was in the up position. Had a mechanic look at the problem and found that one wire was broken off and 2 other wires had been fused to the mechanism harness, clearly this is a fire risk and there is a flaw in the design of the tilt and electrical system inside the tilt steering column. Ford needs to issue an alert for Ranger owners and have a recall on this defect.
