2000 Cherokee XJ Flasher location
New to this forum, I apologize up front if I blow this.
Can’t locate the flasher relay on my 2000 XJ. I have watched all of the videos and read the posts. I remove the two panels under the steering wheel; look where my left knee goes and no relay.
Any ideas?
Thanks up front!

- To start, I hope you're installing a LED-compatible flasher unit as it will prevent "hyperflash" if you decide to go LED. My XJ's both are nearly 100% LED and it is at least double the brightness as the old incandescents. The Novita EP27 LED flasher is plug-n-play and is $9-20 depending where you buy it.
- To access the flasher:
- Remove the driver side kick panel. Three phillips screws at the bottom of the panel. Carefully pull back at the top and bottom of that plastic panel - there are two metal clips that hold it in.
- Remove the steel crash panel behind the plastic panel -- very easy; its only two phillips screws at the top.
- Now, using a small flashlight, look into the open area on the left side and search for that relay. It may have some foam tape wrapped around it. It is fastened to a metal bracket with a plastic clip. If you break it, don't worry.
- For a video on this, search YouTube "jeep xj flasher relay"
