Default Turn signals

I have a 99 Cherokee sport my turn signals work every now and again but most of the time they blink once and then nothing. Sometimes they don't even blink at all.

Thanks!

Same problem in my 2000 XJ. It should be a 5 prong light gray plastic piece. I will try and find the part number if I can find the reciept or package. It was about 40 dollars.
