Probably the turn signal flasher is bad. You should find two flashers under the dash. One is for turn signals and other is for hazard warning. Of course if the flasher isn't the problem it may be the switches under the steering wheel.

Interesting, these are on the same circuit.

1) Click the hazards on and off a few times to exercise the switch.
2) Replace the flasher timer relay.
3) I believe that this system has a little computer center, about the size of a machbox and it is located under the dash. Swap this out with one from a junkyard.

SOURCE: 2000 jeep cherokee sport fuse diagram

unfortinately the fuse box is under the hood and there is no panel inside the 2000 cherokee or diagram, i had to buy an online manual to find out what fuse went where for my jeep but its not with me. You can just pull the fuses out one at a time and look at them - I know its a pain. It might be your window controll switch - mine is bad as well. It is a common problem for these cherokees especially over 100k, they wear out - I initally thought it was my fuse as well because the lights in the window switch didn't light up anymore - but it is my switch.

SOURCE: 2000 jeep cherokee sport fuse diagram

Likely you are looking for a 30 amp circuit breaker...(Looks like a small rectangular metal fuse) But...if the power door locks work, i don't think that it's bad (serves locks & windows) My diagrams show a bunch of diodes and resistors inside the master (drivers) door switch, but I've had a few apart and never saw any. (embedded?) Personally I don't see anything that shows me reliability built into the switch...It's a really "iffy" design (one in my niece's Jeep only works when the sun shines on the drivers door) There is also a control module associated with the windows but I've never needed to replace one and the manuals never tell you where they are!
Check power at the switch and check harness where it goes through the rubber boot between the door and body. at least 80% of problems I've seen are either the switch or that wiring. Wires can be spliced and you can get a decent used switch at most scrap yards.
Good luck...glad they aren't stuck down!!!

SOURCE: erratic idle and sputtering coming from my 2000

could be the o2 sensor, check with a hand scanner if there are any trouble codes stored in the computer.

SOURCE: The hazard lights and turn signals stopped working

You have problem with the FLASHER; the flasher is located in the Junction Block (under the dash, left of steering wheel. See diagram on this page). Check the following repair tip:

Look at the end of the flasher relay with the prongs sticking out. There will be 2 plastic tabs holding it together. Break or bend these back. Pull out the insides. On one side will be all the components. On the other side will be solder joints. Get a magnifying glass and inspect these joints. One or two will probably have stress cracks. Just dab a little flux on this joint and heat it with a soldering iron until it melts back together.

You may need to add just a little solder. Be sure to get the pins hot and not just the solder. They need a lot of heat. Slide the relay back into its cover, dab a little super glue or tape it back together, and you're ready to go.

Check the Fuse 4, 15AMP for Flasher, hazard switch (see Junction Block diagram above for location of turn signal Flasher relay - Mopar p/n 4686094).



Hope this solve it (remember comment and rated this).

My 2001 Cherokee Sport has lost hazards and cruise control.

You are looking more so for relays, not fuses, check the hand book again under relays.

1992 jeep cherokee all blinkers stopped working, checked flash unit and I dont think its a bulb becouse they gradually got weaker and more irregular over a period of a week or so.

Don't know if this will help or you may already know.Your car has two flasher units.One for the hazards and the other for the blinkers.Do the hazards work?If so,the flasher unit that is at the top of the fuse block,on the left,may be the problem.Hope this can help you

1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. The front left

Try the hazard switch.Do all the blinkers work?This may be a loose connection to the lamp.The window and lock system are on seperate circuits so very unlikely they are related.There is a seperate relay for the blinker and hazards,so a single blinker not working is either bulb or wiring.Widows are operated by motor so check the fuse, wires and and actuating switch. (Door trims off).Also check its not just jammed.Locks,check fuses,switch wires for damage or looseness and the actuator is working.Check the actu. rods are not loose are bent.(need the door trims off for this).Quite a few different things but hope this helps

99 jeep cherokee Blinker problem

Hi Bill,I think before replacing anything else you should give that hazard switch a good workout.The switch doesn't get get used very often and the contacts get corroded and can upset the indicators.Good Luck.
