Smoking from middle of steering wheel

Take streering coluom off n replace the switch. Not exp. or hard

Hi Jeri bring the car some where and have it checked. Thers no smoke without fire. It's too risky. Regards Jim...

You have a Shorting wire, you will have to dismantle the steering column to trace it. Disconnect your battery and do not drive it until you get it fixed.

Sounds like the wires in the column or on the switch are melted together.

Use hand signals until this is fixed. Possibly contact your car insurance about Electrical fire and comprehensive coverage. A fuse should have broke before the column smoked, there is nothing preventing a fire now.

They should want to fix this before the whole car burns up.

you have a shorted out wire somewhere in ur steering column to check this ull have to have the steering wheel pulled which is not a easy task without proper tools and a puller or have to replace column i would disconect battery till problem is sovled as may catch fire and if eqiuped with air bag could set that off in ur face ...good luck

if you have smoke from steering wheel, then you have a wire in the column thats shorting out.

take apart steering column and look for charred wires 

the problem is your signal light switch circuit board is worn out. Ive replaced that same part cause i was having the same problem. Then i had to replace my steering column for other reasons and now guess what .......MORE SMOKE!.

This is a bad problem, and will probably require you to replace the entire ignition system and wiring located in the mechanical end of the steering column. I feel the smoke was melting wiring due to excessive use and time. the shorted wiring or even an open wire in the steering column will most certainly keep your engine from starting. If your not familiar with 12volt systems or have a hard time with small mechanics, than find someone who can help disassemble the column and locate the wiring that needs to be replaced.
