Blinkers not working

I have a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo and when I flip the switch my blinkers do not work but all of my other lights work. How can this be fixed?

    There are pins in the steering column where the turn signal and emergency flashers plug into the steering column that tend to be pushed back that need to be pushed back so the pins make good contact for them to both work. I would try that before I bought anything new.

Did you check the bulbs? If one bulb is burned out, the blinkers won't word on that side. You could have one bulb burned out on each side. Start the car, put left signal on. Check front and back lights. Is one light on but not blinking? If that's the case, the light that's not on at all is burned out and has broken the circuit so the good light stays on and won't blink. Check the other side. You also have a 'flasher' , actually 2. One for emergency flashers, one for the turn signals. It could be that the turn signal flasher is shot. You just have to unplug it to remove. It's probably located near the fuses. good luck countrycurt0

94 grand cherokee laredo rear blinkers/hazards

I'd start with a new flasher relay (they're cheap). If not that, then go to those lamp sockets and check for corrosion. I had issues similar w my 95 laredo...it was the flasher.

2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, I had blinkers and flashers no brake lights, and after checking the bulbs in the light itself I dont have blinkers or flashers at all

Just no turn signals in the back now? Maybe didn't install the bulbs tight back into the asm? No brake lights...do the lights work with headlights on and just no illumination with the brake pedal depressed? Could be brake light switch.

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

Blinkers and hazards are not working its a 1999 jeep cheeroke le

Check fuses, also check the switch for your hazard lights, if the wires get disconnected on that switch it will disable the turn signals and hazards as well.  It could also be a bad switch.  Otherwise it's a wiring issue somewhere along the line. Good luck.
