SOURCE: Blinkers not working

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

SOURCE: 92 pontiac grand am blinkers wont work

there is a small fuse in your acctual operating stick or indicator arm, if warning lights are working then i would strongly recommend changing this as only the relay/power supply to baord could stop them working. there is also i have been informed a relay under the bonnet which you could try to replace as well.

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.

1989 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. Why no blinkers or 4 ways?

Turn the 4 way switch on and off several times. Sometimes the connection that goes from turn signals and emergency
lights get dirty.

I have a 99 Jeep Gr Cherokee, My turn signals and 4ways are not working, and the 4 wheel drive indicator light on the dash is also not working. What could cause both to go at the same time?

easy fuses blown.
we dont know what 4wd options you have, so cant answer.
if part time 4wd ,do not use it on dry pavement.
its only for ice or offroad, read the operators guide yet?
my 99 is part time, its not AWD, sorry not. stay of dry pavement.
wet means ice, not water. water pavement , NO.
so forget that. and lets fix blinkers.

do hazards work.?

fuses and haz, forget 4wd.

does not working mean.
  1. dead
  2. stuck on
  3. flashes too fast.

Sounds like an electrical problem; look for loose, corroded or kinked/broken wires. The problem is most likely in the dash wiring/connections and seems to be pretty common in jeeps.

Have 2001 Cherokee, for some time the blinker will turn on but not blink. If you moved blinker handle up and down they would work, Now it wont work at all. Dont know how to find fuse

likely your flasher unit was failing or you had a bulb out somewhere. Flasher should be on right side of steering column under dash yours could be a "combination flasher" Older models had flashers on fuse box under dash on left side.

Blinker dont work flasher and other lights work

The turn signals don't work, but the emergency flashers do? If that's the case, replace the flasher, you have 2 flashers, one for emergency (hazard) flasher, and one for the turn signals. It should be on the fuse block under the dash.
