My 2004 TJ suddenly started buzzing and not working, which quickly deteriorated to no signals or hazards at all. Here is my "journey".
1) checked fuse in glovebox, was fine.
2) checked lights - fine
3) had spare , - changed flasher - no change
4) had spare - tried MFS - no change
5) Noted that if had brakes on, when clicked handle, light "flashed" as I moved it. Used that for weeks.
6) Noted that if had park lights on, side marker goes bright when handle to that side.
7) Noted connector to MFS slightly melted, crumbling. Ordered replacement (almost $100 for generic!!)
8) Try deciphering wiring diagrams (I can read a schematic, but these are pure evil). Traced connections, yup, if handle down and park on, side marker will go bright if signal from flasher is grounded.
9) Realize there was a fuse in underhood power distribution. Checked the one that said "external lights". Seemed to control park lights etc, was good. Ready to begin splicing.
10) Note an obscure post that gave fuse numbers, re check wiring diagram, hmm, different fuse under hood marked MFSD, open. Replaced 20A fuse #27. SIGNALS!
I have no idea why that 20A fuse would go when I have almost all LED lights now or why a simple plastic connector with pigtail cost so much! I hope that this helps others.
