Popping in steering column

[Paul65]

My Tacoma has a popping noise, like popcorn popping in the steering column when driving straight without turning. It doesn’t do it when stopped. It sounds electrical to me. Yesterday, the right turn blinker blinked fast but is blinking normally today. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Go to a dealer BEFORE you have to call the fire department.
Electrical wires heating and plastic do not get along well.

Do you have aluminum skid plates? If so, it's them.

skid plate may not be installed correctly, who changed the oil last?
