Its the wires at the base of the turn-signal stalk. They break there. If you are mechanically and electrically inclined it can be fixed for cheap.

You will need a USB cable. Dead mouse, extension or whatever.. You will need to solder new wires onto the existing wires where they are broken and run the new cable down the steering column.

Jeep used GMs cruise controller and GM used solid-core copper wire in an area that needs to flex (fail). Using USB cable will fix it for a loooong time.

If the light comes on but the jeep doesn't hold its speed you probably want to check your vacuum lines.
Do your hevac vents respond to the controls or are they stuck on defrost/screen?
