only thing that will cause smoke in steering column,is an electrical short in the wiring inside the steering column
The steering column can be a Chanel for engine compartment heat to come up. It can also have wiring and electrical trouble inside that will eventually cause a fire.
The clock spring would be inside the plastic steering column cover ( it allows you to turn the steering wheel without " breaking " the wiring connection to your horn and steering wheel mounted cruise control buttons )
That is possible, The "clockspring" is the wiring connection under the steering wheel.That is possible, The "clockspring" is the wiring connection under the steering wheel.
Short in the wiring with the steering column.
no they do not have the same wiring harness 65;
You can remove the steering will, on your Ford Ranger pickup truck, by removing the steering wheel pin. Remove the wiring harness and the steering wheel will come off.
The buttons function off the "clockspring" inside the steering wheel, that is where they get their power. The clockspring wiring harness may have come loose. If you aren't familiar with these parts, don't try disassembling your steering wheel or you may end up activating the airbag, very dangerous.

I'm not a mechanic / technician but it sounds like a problem with the clockspring inside the steering wheel column cover if the horn and the cruise control does not work ( the clockspring allows you to turn the steering wheel without pulling the wiring connections to your horn and cruise control switches mounted in your steering wheel )

You can find the 1994 Chevy Cheyenne steering column wiring diagram at most Chevrolet dealerships. Chevrolet service manuals will also have the diagram and can be found at most local libraries.
