Default In Cabin Blinker

Hey guys I'm new and actually new to the Jeep world. I bought a 2000 XJ last week, you should see this thing its in amazing condition! 72000 miles! Paint is untouched and runs amazing.

Anyway I have one problem the right blinker inside the cabin doesn't blink. The outside blinker lights function properly on the right and the left and the Hazzards are working as they should. The inside left blinker works just fine. The only problem is the inside right blinker light doesn't light up. Makes the noise like its blinking and everything.

Searching threads I've found similar problems but nothing quite the same. Most of the threads on here are left blinker problems that also have outside blinker problems. Mine is strictly the inside light. Does the bulb need to be replaced or should I try and replace the fuse?

Anyway If I missed a thread please point me in the right direction (preferrably a thread with instructions on how to fix) or any advice would be helpful.

sounds like a bulb its not hard to pull the dash cluster and check it out
im sure im going to get crap for mentioning this but just in case you arent aware you could have problems with the cylinder head and should be aware of what to look for
do a search for "cherokee 0331 head problems" there are a batch of heads used on the 2000,2001 model year xjs that can crack and create bigger issues like motor replacment if not closely monitored

Thank you guys! I will pull the dash cluster and replace the bulbs. Good thinking to replace all bulbs why I have the thing pulled apart.

I'll check out the head problems, I really don't think its anything like that. This thing runs smooth, can barely hear the engine when it idols. But I guess that still doesn't mean something won't happen in the future!!

I'll do the search and take preventive measures to make sure the heads aren't a problem in the future.
