September 2002 Crash

Ford f150 series, late 90's into the 2000's. My vehicle is a 2000 f150 4 door, extended cab, 4.6 triton v8. When the tilt wheel feature is operated, the turn signals and emergency flashers cease to operate, or operate incorrectly. On other f150's I am aware of, with the same problem, the problem eventually results in total lack of function of turn signals and emergency flasher, regardless of position of tilt wheel.
