Turn Signals Intermittently Working While Running Lights And Tail Lights Work
Question:
I have my hitch wiring harness which is installed in my jeep xj 98. So the running lights are working just great but the problem is both my turn signals lights do not work sometimes, I think specially when I play with the brake lights brake lights working fine.

Expert Reply:
If the signals are trying to draw more power when in function, but are only working intermittently, I would first check the ground contact point. This will be the white wire from the converter box. Make sure you have a clean, maybe even bare metal surface to give you a solid ground connection. You can use a little sand paper to remove any paint or coating to this surface that might hinder a quality connection when grounding.
Also look for any possible kinks or bends in the power from the battery, or the connection inconsistency in the butt connectors in the black wire.
