TJ Turn Signal Problem
 

I have a 1999 TJ. Blinkers don't work, either side, and no light comes
on on the dash. Hazards don't work either. Checked the fuse. No
problem. Went and bought a new flasher unit. Installed it. No change
at all. Any thoughts before I give up and take it in? Thank you. My
guess is now the switch itself on the steering column but I think maybe
that is beyond my abilities and would be a lot of trouble to get into
if that is not even the problem. Not sure it is relevant but the
flasher was replaced a year or so ago for the same problem, and it
worked that time. Is it possible I just got a bad one?

it is probably the multi function switch... (the lever you pres up & down)
They cost me 36 bucks from the dealer and take about 20 minutes to install!!

While you are at the parts store be sure to rent two tools. The steering
wheel puller (like a gear puller), and the tool that compresses the spring
while you remove a clip.

Re: TJ Turn Signal Problem
 

On my YJ, there is what they call a circuit breaker for the wipers. its
5.3A and is at the bottom middle of the fuse panel under the dash. Its not
labeled, but in my owners manual it shows a picture of the fuse panel and
is labeled there. There's another one for R R Wipers (Upper Left) but
thats the rear wiper. I replaced mine with a fuse, 5A, and the wipers
started working.
