x2 they could rub or bend and expose the copper leading to shorts sometimes they can just be too close and not shielded and interfere with each other. Open up the column and look em over.

Could also be a ground issue. I had a problem in my '85 where the cruise would drop out if I hit a good bump in the road. Turned out to be the ground wire connection in the driver's side kick panel area. 3-4 ground wires tie to a sheet metal screw there and I suspect one was loose and that caused the cruise to lose power briefly and kick off. Clue was that it had "forgotten" the set speed it had before and would not "resume". Might be something to check. I removed all the wires, wire brushed the ends, cleaned the paint from the sheet metal under the screw and put it all back together.
