Strange Blinker Issue
 

My 2002 TJ is having a strange problem with its blinkers. When ever you
turn on either the left or right blinker, it will blink normally for a few
times, then blink rapidly for a brief moment and then stop. Any
suggestions?

Many thanks!

Either you have an intermittent ground on your blinker relay, or the relay
itself is bad. I'm not sure where the relay unit is on the '02, on my '00 it
is under the dash just to the right of the steering column.

Time to replace the blinker fluid ... the #80 is ok for summer use, but as
winter approaches, a multigrade 5W30 is required to ensure that the blinkers
work properly at startup and still provide adequate lubrication once the
blinkers warm up.

ok, and old one :-)
