Default Blinkers I have none.....

Just purchased a 2000 XJ Sport on Monday. Runs and drives great! I have no blinkers or hazards. I replaced the relay, but no luck there. I've read a lot of threads that have the issue, and have tried everything I can think of to get them working. What else is there to check? Any help would be appreciated.

I would suspect the turn signal/hazard switch unit if the relays are good. It is a modular unit containing both the switches.

Did you check all the fuses ? Does the turn signal/hazard switch feel ok or does it feel loose ?

Guessing games should be restricted to parties. Tell us what you've done and we can tell you what's left.

We have no way of knowing your definition of "everything". People who join forums range from highly intelligent to pretty stupid, and very experienced to complete newbs. We don't know where you fit on that scale, so we have no idea what you have done.

Just had something similar on my '87 but not sure if yours is the same.

Symptom was no running lights, headlights/brake lights ok. Turn signals were good except for drivers side front wasn't blinking. Dash turn indicators were blinking. Hazards ok. I didn't notice as I usually drive Jeep on weekends during the day. Was coming home at night and wife noticed I had no running lights.


Pulled into parking lot, 10A fuse had blown but why? Bulb in drivers side front was burned out and looked horrible.

Changed bulb (1157A), new fuse and all working.

Must have shorted to ground blowing fuse. Cheap fix so lesson is to check the obvious first.
