Cruise control problem

I have a 97 powerstroke with 210000 mi, when driving with the cruise control on and I engage the left turn signal it will shut off the cruise just like I've stepped on the brake pedal. Turning on the right signal everything works correctly, it appears that I have a problem in the left turn circuit any ideas on where to start?

Sounds like you are getting a backfeed from the turn signs into the brake circuit. My first thought is to check the bulb for proper installation
