How to Replace the Turn Signal Flasher on a 2001 Jeep Cherokee

The 2001 Jeep Cherokee turn signals and emergency flashers both are controlled by the flasher relay. If your turn signals or emergency lights are not flashing properly and you have verified the bulbs are functional, the relay may be burned out. You can purchase a replacement relay from an auto parts store and replace it at home. Keeping your turn signals and hazard lights functioning properly provides safety on the road.

Instructions

1

Position the Cherokees steering wheel in the highest position possible to make it easier to access the dashboard panels.

2

Remove the three screws securing the lower dashboard panel below the steering wheel with a Phillips screwdriver. Pull the trim panel off the dashboard.

3

Grasp the turn signal relay, and pull straight back to disconnect it. The turn signal relay is mounted just above the fuse box on the drivers side, and the relay is stamped with either "50732" or "TBB89" for easy identification.

4

Push the replacement relay into the mounting area until it is secure. Replace the lower dashboard panel. Insert the three screws back into the dashboard panel, and tighten them with a Phillips screwdriver.

5

Return the steering wheel to your preferred position. Test the turn signal relay for proper function.
