92 cruise control

I have a 92 F250 460 auto. When using the cruise control, everything is fine until I move the turn signal switch to the "right". Then the cruise shuts off just as if the brakes were applied. "Resume" brings it right back to speed. Nothing happens when I signal left. Anyone else had this happen? What's the fix?

It sounds like a short or broken wire in your steering column. You'll have to take it apart and spot the problem.

This sounds like it could be the clock spring .
You may want to do a search under clock spring.
I had the cruise control servo go out a few months ago. I bought one at the local salvage yard for $75.
Best wishes,

Most likely you have a shorted turn signal bulb on the right front or rear. Sometimes they short to the parking light filament. You may find one of the right side bulbs brighter, dimmer or not working. I'd replace any questionable bulbs and/or sockets. If that doesn't fix it a turn signal switch or wiring problem on the right side curcuit will have to be checked.
