This just happened with my 2001... the turn signals on mine only work when the steering wheel is in the most upright position... It's either the multi-purpose switch that needs replacing, the connector or the wiring harness... I was told that because I adjusted my steering wheel each time I got in the truck that I caused the problem... nice, huh?
Answer
The wiring to the brake lights and turn signals are postioned badly right under the tilt steering mechanism...using the tilt steering will eventually cut the wire...i had the same problem in my '01 Sport...in my opinion, it should have been a recall but i researched and it wasn't listed...hope this helps
