97TJ.blinkers quit working
 
emergency flashers work but the blinkers are dead when I hit the turn signal.
Recently ran the battery down unrelated to this. Are the blinkers on a fuse?

Re: 97TJ.blinkers quit working
 
All electrical circuits are fused. If your hazards work, according to my
schematic, the fuse is good. TJ also shares a common flasher, again
according to my schematic. Do the turn signals light but not flash, or do
they not light at all?

Out of blinker fluid?
;-)

Seriously I would try swapping the flasher unit with the emergency
flasher unit to see what happens.

Re: 97TJ.blinkers quit working
 
Common flasher unit and fuse?

No more fuse link wires protecting the alternator and headlights?

I didn't think Chrysler could have screwed them up that bad.....

The emergency flashers should have their own flasher unit and their own
fuse so do the signal lights.

On the CJ7 and the Cherokee the turn signals are with the reverse light
and rear window defroster fuse and the emergency flashers are with the
clock and brake light fuse.

Re: 97TJ.blinkers quit working
 
I suppose I have once again been too literal for the group. When I say that
all circuits are fused, that is a generic statement meant to cover fuses,
ckt breakers, and fusible links. They all fuse the ckt. With few
exceptions, one being the starter, all circuits on a vehicle are fused.

So far as the flasher goes, like I said, that was according to the schematic
that I have, which I would happily pass along to the Calvin8tor if he so
wishes. My first impulse was a bad flasher, too, until I saw that. Maybe
my schematic sucks. Dunno.

If you've used your hazards lately, is the switch all the way over into the
'off' position on the steering column?

I hear that one.. Took me 15min of messing with mine before I moved the
switch just slightly to the left again to get the signals to work.
