Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER CALLED FROM COLLEGE TO TELL ME HER TURN SIGNALS HEAD LIGHTS DASH LIGHTS AND WIPERS HAD ALL STOPPED WORKING. SHE TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER WHO TOLD HER IT WAS THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH AND COULD NOT WORK ON IT UNTIL THE FOLLOWING MONDAY. SHE HAD TO COME HOME IN THE RAIN, DRIVE 250 MILES WITH OUT TURN SIGNALS, LIGHTS OR WIPERS. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM THAT THE JEEP NEEDS TO ADDRESS AND FIX IT. I STARTED LOOKING ON LINE AT SOME JEEP FORUMS AND FOUND SOME THINGS TO TRY. THE FIRST ONE I TRIED GOT EVERYTHING WORKING FOR NOW STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSED THE ORIGINAL ISSUES THOUGH AND JEEP IS NOT GOING TO ADMIT TO ANYTHING. ALL I DID WAS UNHOOK THE POSITIVE CABLE TO THE BATTERY AND RESET THE ON BOARD CONTROL SYSTEM FOR THE JEEP. PLEASE PASS THIS INFO ON IT REALLY HELPED MY DAUGHTER AND SAVED A FORTUNE IN UNNECESSARY PARTS AND WORK FROM THE DEALER. *TR
