Have a base model 88 cherokee. I'm having issues with the turn signals flashing at different rates, the windshield wipers not going down all the way and my cigarette lighter is blowing the radio fuse. If there are any known solutions that can be done by an average guy the info would be appreciated

 

Check the grounds at the rear bulb sockets. They aways have bad connections where the ground wire is crimped to the socket.
Soldering it fixes it.

 

are the grommets on wiper arms good? buy a new lighter element....

 

Thanks for the info! The thing is the lighter looks brand new..:/

 

Oh And there's another problem I forgot when the head lights are on it practically dims the lights on the dash to where they aren't visible at night.

 

That should be the dimmer on the switch. Try turning the **** with the lights on it should change the brightness. As for the blinkers and lighter, in my experience its time.to start cleaning electrical. Pull the bulbs and clean them and the sockets use dielectric grease and reinstall. The lighter has a simple wire running off the back... dunno about cleaning it but I would inspect it.

 

Thanks for the suggestions. As for the dim lights there isn't a a **** or switch for a dim setting in it. So thinking its a fuse or something along those lines.

 

When you pull the **** to turn the headlights on you can't turn that ****? It should be built in to the headlights switch.

 

Ok wow feeling dumb. Yes the **** turns and when it's all the way to the right the radio lights up more but the spedo is barley lit and the fuel doesn't at all.

 

Don't feel dumb we all gotta start somewhere :-) unfortunately the cluster ground is probably loose or dirty. I've never messed with it but I'm pretty sure you have to pull the cluster to get to it. A chilton or haynes will sufficiently outline the procedure.

 

Sounds good thanks for the info!!!!
