I had this problem with my car. Is ur hazzard flasher working? if they are working and the turn signals are not working. Try replacing the hazzard light switch. If the hazzard are not working then the combination flasher unit is bad. its what controls the signals and flasher.
Brake lights run through the hazzard switch. There are known problems with this, and the multifunction switch. You may need to buy a new hazzard switch and OR the multifunction switch. Before you do that, check the pigtail that goes into the brake switch up by the fender, make sure it's not shorting out up there. Happened to me!
Try replaced the hazard flasher. Usually located under the dash by the steering column area.. There is also another one for the signals so make sure you replace the correct one. Both flashers might look the same. Here is a picture below of a flasher
OK! The reason you are have problems finding what you are looking for on your 2009 Doge Journey is because they simply do not exist on your vehicle. Here's the rundown:
The hazzard switch has a little computer module built into it. When you turn it on, it does not turn on the hazzard flasher like back in the day...instead, it sends a digital signal to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to tell it that you are requesting the hazzard lights on. The PCM then decides if it is going to let you do this. If it determines that it is OK to turn the Hazzard lights on, it relays a digital message to the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) and the Totaly Integrated Power Module (TIPM). The IPC then turns the indicators in the instrument panel on to let you know the hazzard lights are on. The TIPM then turns the exterior lights (turn signal/hazzard lamps) ON and OFF to "flash" them.
Just another of the MANY things that the manufacturers are doing in an effort to FORCE you to bring your vehicle to the dealership for repair. Please check out this web site:RIGHT TO REPAIR
Anyway, to put it real simple - you will need a computer scanner to find out what is wrong with your hazzard lights.
there is a separeate flasher relay for turn signals,usullay by hazzard flashers.turn on hazzards use sound to locate,turn flasher will be near.some will interchange to get you by till you can replace.
Your problem is your blinker or flasher, it is located under dash, behind the instrument panel right above the steering column. Cost is no more than $10.
the turn singnal switch is called a multifunction switch. this controls both your hazzards and the turn singnals.this could possibly be your problem.but before you buy this part that is over $100. try to locate your hazzard flasher or your turn singnal flasher relay under the dash. this is most likely your problem.
