Sounds like the loom coming out of the column has been crushed or maybe you have fitted spotlights(incorrectly) recently??
There are two plugs at the back of the column, try unplugging the lights/indicator plug and then the ignition plug and see if it makes any difference.
Bit hard to diagnose here but my best guess would be to undo whatever has been done recently.
