Just recently my tail lights, and the third eye blink (all the lights like the same as I hit the brakes) when I turn on my left turn signal.

I know it's not a fuse and the relay works just fine while on right turn (and hazards).

It only does this when I turn the left signal.


Any input??

You have bigger issues  ~clown

Really, you probably have a problem in the "clock spring" behind the steering wheel which means pulling the steering wheel and taking the whole thing apart.

I noticed the other day that when you hit the left turn signal the left front turn signal lights up but doesn't flash and sometimes the left signal doesn't work until the wheel is turned about halfway. You'll also find that when this happens you can step on the brake pedal while the left turn signal is on and the signal will stop flashing.

It's a known problem in TJ's, usual fix is to replace the turn signal mechanism but it can be taken apart and rebuilt. pita either way
