Sorry to post the same problem twice, but i found someone with the EXACT same problem but described it better. Maybe it will clarify a little bit

"Hi....... the emergency flashers works, so I know the bulbs are okay...but suddenly today my turn signals are not flashing, and I don;t even see the indicator lights on the dash nor do I hear the usual "click-click-click" when the turn signal switch is in position. My first idea is to check the fuse for the circuit. If the fuse is okay, what should I check next?"

 

Check fuses. Then double check all your bulbs.

 

Check your flasher on the fuse panel.

 

Grounds are my first thingto check when the XJ has an electrical issue. Then second I check my blinker fluid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!j/k

 

check the wireharness and pigtail on the headerpannel, see if there are any broken wires and corrosion. if there is bie pass the pig tail and hardwire them togeather.

 

I hate to bug you with this again, but now my signals work......kinda. When play with the lever and dont pull it all the way down/up i can make them work for a couple of seconds. I checked everything that was mentioned, and those things were all ok. Could it be the lever itself? Please help...I need to pass inspection

 

I would check for shorts in the wiring, from the way you describe it there sounds like theres a short somewhere.

 

sounds like a bad combination switch...

 

So if there is a short somewhere, how would i go about fixing it?

 

Isay the switch. If there is a short you can by pass it with some wire or you can replace that whole wire.

 

Yep I'm having the same problem fellas. hit the left blinker, right indicator comes on but no flash. left indicator or exterior bulb never come on.

 

I think it is the multifunction switch because even in the neutral position the right blinker is on.. haha

 

THAT sounds like a bad bulb.

 

Combo switches/cancel cams do go out. The chances of a short to power is rare. Short to ground would blow a fuse.

R&R that switch in the column, or if in doubt, get one at a junkyard for cheap $, and that way you know how to tear into one- so you don't damage yours when you go to fix it.

 

I already had the S. wheel off and could see cams turning but I don't think the left is getting a good connection, but I will check all the bulbs.. when I flip the left or neutral position the right indicator comes on but no flashing, and only with the headlights on as well.. thinking it might be a nightmare
