    Turn signal help

    a few weeks ago, i started having issues with my turn signals in my 00 xj. at first they were fine and worked. then they began working sporatically. now i got nothing. was told it was the multifunction switch, so i changed it out....my hazards work now, but still, no signals. i've done the usual, checked fuses, replaced bulbs, but still nothing, just hazards. anyone have any suggestions?

    thanks

    Did you check the flasher? I believe there are two, 1 for Hazards and 2nd for turn signals. Also check grounds.

    blinker fluid, is that near the flux capacitor?

    where would the flashers be? in the fuse box? or under the hood or some other location?

    it should be located under the dash on or near the fuse panel.

    oh yea hopefully it isn't the blinker switch, those are a PITA to remove/change. Also, do you have a trailer harness for the rear hitch? If so, make sure the connectors aren't corroded together or damaged that they would be shorting out (if this was the case, it should be blowing fuses but better to be safe).

    i just looked at my fuse panel...its' on the passenger side...there are 3 large relays, but i'm not sure which one it would be. i do have a hitch, but i never wired it up to pull anything, haven't had the time...

    if it's under the dash, any clues as to where?
