Best Answer

The turn signal wiring goes up the steering column. Turn signal bulbs are also used as brake lights and the brake light signal goes through the turn signal switch. If there is a loose connection or worn wire in the steering column, the tilt would cause problems.

Where is the flasher in a 98 Ranger?

The problem that I had with my 2001 Ranger rebuild was I had tail-lights and back up lights along with brake lights. No turn signals or hazard lights. More than likely, it is a bad turn signal control arm. There is also a relay box under the dash. My problem was that the relay had gotten wet and had rusted inside. As soon as we replaced this, I had turn signals and hazards. Hope this gives you a reference where to start your search. Good Luck, Dan
