problem #2

Sep 012016

Grand Cherokee 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 87,000 miles

My left rear turn signal works and then it wont. Its intermittent. The message it causes is that the turn signal bulb is burned out. I took it to the dealer 09-28-2016 and they could not check it but indicated it sounded like a circuit board.

right front signal light not working and burning socket

The front right turn signal on the vehicle does not work at all. The issue was reported to the dealership on several occasions while under warranty. The dealership stated that the issue was the bulb socket, and the entire headlight assembly would have to be replaced at our cost.

Upon testing the system, it was determined by an independent mechanic that the problem has nothing to do with the socket. A simple switch of the (supposedly bad) socket to the passenger side showed it worked fine.

The problem was traced back to the TIPM which is causing both filaments in the bulb to illuminate at all times when the lights are on. There is no signal to the light for the turn signal only constant power, which is causing the socket and light housing to burn.

This problem is very dangerous. Not only can we not signal right, but the melting plastic indicates this could be a fire issue.
