Still open to suggestions to remedy however. Please.
I was thinking if it?s in the steering wheel it could be the clock spring.
But good point that it could be the crash sensor. On the 05 burb the crash sensor design rusted out the sensor. I had a member here check it with a pro type scanner and it came back as the left crash sensor.
Not sure where on your truck the sensors are but should be able to find on the webs. It might be good to see if one is corroded. On mine it was not obvious until the screw was removed. If you decide to pull them disconnect battery and wait 1/2 hour for everything to discharge.

I almost forgot about the clock spring. Other than owning one, I?m not really a Dodge guy so I don?t know if they use a clock spring.
Also, typically a clock spring is either good or bad so the fact that she says the light is on intermittently kind of steers me away from that being the cause.
Obviously, I could be wrong.
They do use a clockwork spring. Its $75 and a pain. I need to do mine this winter. Crank the wheel and feel for a slight tick in the column.
Also it runs the cruise control so....
Is that so...
Ive already had to replace the signal switch & another ancillary part. Recall I had to do the key cylinder once too - when that was under warranty.
If you ignore it for 6 months or so the tick in the column will get pronounced enough if feels like the turn signal cancellation
So in this case doing nothing is diagnostics
Coincidentally, my truck had a piece of loose plastic shroud banging around on the front bumper when driving @ 80mph, on washboard roads, etc., so I used a zip tie to secure it.
Oddly, the airbag idiot light hasn't lit up since. Funny.
Black electrical tape over the offending indicator on the dash, problem solved.
