Default 87 4.0 turn signals dont work but hazards do the headlights also dont come on aswell

new to the renix system im used to the newer years does anyone have any idea what this could be. if this makes any difference its on a 87 wagoneer limited. theres allot of things that mysteriously dont work leaning towards the ignition switch but im doubting it

Renix basically refers to the fuel injection system.

Your Jeep has 2 turn signal flashers. the turn signal flasher could be bad while the hazard one is good.

Does your blower fan and radio work? Parklamps work?

Sometime real soon, and before diving into anything else, I would complete Tips 1 through 5 at www.cruiser54.com

Tips 1 through 5 are highest priority.

I like having the c101 soldered though. It's just hard on your back.
