it might be a loose wire/harness under and around the steering column, check around there, also check your fuses and make sure none of them are burnt. also check your underneath the dash, might have some loose and worn wires that your steering wheel is hitting.....just my 2 cents.

pinched wires, grounding out, making a short when you play with the wheel
