    I have a 2008 4 Door Jeep Wrangler and the headlights, turn signals, and windshield wipers quit working. I have already replaced the multi function switch (that controls the lights and turn signals), the TIPM, and the Clock Spring. None of these have fixed the problem. I also unhooked, cleaned, and reconnected all the ground wires. When I unhook one down by my clutch the windshield wipers and headlights come on, but have now control, they just come on and stay on until I hook the ground back up. Has anyone else had this problem before? I’m having a hard time with this one, and could really use some help figuring it out. Thank you in advance

    You might want to check the ground wires on passenger side by the knock sensor they get hot and sometimes you have bare wires showing and melted some. It’s a common problem with jeeps
