| Post subject: | Turn signals will not go off (unless remove fuse) |
Was just using the turn signal as normal and went to turn left and turned it on and it triggered both left and right to go on, no matter what I do they keep flashing, almost like the hazards are on. If I pull the fuse they go off, but then my turn signals don't work. Jeep says it's some module, that is common to fail and costs $150 to replace, not under warrenty. Anyone have info on this type of failure? Hoping I have other options than to pay the dealer to fix. Search yeiled nothing, seems like that don't work so well.... |

Check state regulations for warranties...some states from what i've heard require that dealers fix safety features...such as turn signals, seat belts and air bags...free of charge or for a nominal fee at the most...check with your local DOT and see what they might be able to say...just a thought... |

That seems strange - are you out of the warranty period? I can't imagine electrical system is something that is expected wear+tear like brakes and bulbs. |

40k have the 76k powertrain warrenty, but apparently this is 'bumper-to-bumper' which expired @ 36? Anyway, so far not common huh? Well I might just have to bite the bullet. The handle thing works fine, it's electronic. Some module, can't thing of it right now... i'll pull the name. |

Only module I believe it could be is the BCM. It controls everything inside the jeep. |

I would check the flasher switch first. About $26.50 for the KJ if you search for hazard switch on any dcx dealer site. I've had the same thing happen to me on 2 previous cars and it was that both times. Edit-ok edited 2x. The hazard switch comtains the circuitry, but does go through the BCM. I still think its that! |

ok well, after troubleshooting the cause was a bad fuse. I replace the fuse with another and wahalla! good one 'master tech' from my jeep dealer.. idiots. |
