Fire

Thought it was my alternator it checked to be good then I bought a battery then changed the fuze and the car is still dyeing the battery gage still goes all the way down then the turn signal switch that turns the turn signal off and on smoke was coming out of the steering wheel column when it was on and now the sound of the turn signal stays on when the turn signal is off and both turn signals are flashing at the same time when its in the off position no fire just smoke.
