I've searched but eveyones problem is different. This just happend last night. All of the interior lights, dash lights, hazzards, parking lights, headlights, radio everything works except the turn signals??? i replaced the flasher and nothing. no clicking when the turn signal lever is push up or down. all of the fuses are good. turn signals worked the day before and then dead to the world. i dont know what or where to check to reslove this and its drving me up the wall.

Its a 92 cherokee

need ideas asap

thanks
 
check the relays?
 
#8 fuse is were the power is coming from. That would be the yellow with red stripe wire at the flasher relay. The other wire at the relay is black and it goes to the turn signal switch in the colum. If you have tilt wheel this wire could be broken next to the plastic plug were the turn signal wiring harnes plugs in. So check for power here. If you have power here it sounds like you have a bad TS switch.
 
I had the same problem and it was the switch inside the steering column. I mess with it and took it in before I broke more stuff then was already broke. Lots of brittle plastic crap in there.

do u have to pull the steering wheel out to get to the switch?


Yeppers.....sorry
 
hazards work, walked around to make sure and they all work....where is the column switch? what does it look like? easy swap?
 
when you guys have your turn signal on, where does the clicking sound come from? does it come from the turn signal flasher?
 
update....i swapped the 2 flashers and now the turn signals work along with the hazards and everything else....go figure

thanks for all the help guys

but no turn signals its a 1996 and is there
more then one Flasher ?? I checked the
blue one and it seemed to be working

the turn signals any Ideas please let me

you can replace the turn signal flasher, on my 92 its the one thats located at the bottom left side of the fuse panel. I swapped my around and all a sudden the turn signals started working.
