99% of this type of problem, following closely to your description, leads to replacing the Multifunction Switch in the steering column. If the MFS is defective, testing it will require following power distribution using a wiring diagram. It's not simple. That's why most folks with this type of problem just swap the MFS with a known good one, it's easier (for most basic folks) than tracing wires.

Air Bag precautions need to be followed, a Factory service manual is recommended.

The MFS is making more headlines than the LCM (lighting control module).
