Question I have a 1997 nissan sentra GXE, and sometimes when I put on the signal light, smoke comes out from the behind the steering wheel? Any idea what the problem might be?
Answer Hi Kisha -
Gee, never heard that one before -
Looks like there is a problem with the connection for the turn signal switch. In the steering wheel there are many connectors and terminals very close together. Perhaps 2 wires are shorting out. Have any fuses blown? Does it smoke usually when the wheel is turning, or still?
