Electrical Problems in 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo?
My 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo's flashers went out, no turn signals, no hazards. Replaced the flasher for the hazard lights, the hazards started working, couldn't find the where the flasher for the turn signal goes so BF takes it in to the mechanic to fix. Well now my computer doesn't work, and my stereo doesn't work, and the flashers still don't work. He tested all the fuses, and apparently tested the turn signal flasher fuse (only I'd like to know where he FOUND it, because I took the car apart searching everywhere) The mechanic says we have electrical problems, but he doesn't do electrical work and electricians charge by the hour. It's been one thing after another with this car, but I've put so much money in it I'm not trying to junk it over some electrical BS. I just don't understand how if there's electrical problems why I was able to fix my hazard lights. Did this guy f*** up my car? And has anybody had a similar problem with their older jeep? Napa told me there were two fuses, one for the hazard flashers, one for the turn signal flashers and that's what the dealership told me, but this mechanic told me that the hazard flashing unit is used for the hazards and the turn signals and the problem is probably in the steering wheel column.

your turn signal and hazard light,s are all in one unit you may well have a hazard light switch problem as the turn signal lights fun through the switch, the car sound,s too good to junk, get it to the electrician to get it sorted

Ya electrical issues suck. First thing i do before tracing out these issues is clean up the battery and cable connections and follow the ground wires and check their connections. When i get that done its off to the fuse box (s). Quite often there is one under the dash and under the hood. And i have seen independent flash units. "However i am old school". Yes i would say he could have messed up the system in his poking around by shorting something.
