1 Hazard Flashing Warning Light Unit problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2015

The right front passenger fog/blinker goes is not always functional. When the front right fog/blinker is not working the back blinks fast to indicate a bulb out. The bulbs have been replaced the wiring has been checked from the tipm box all the way to the light. I have gone over 2 months without my car to see what's wrong but no one can figure it out and there are no codes that generate. The tipm box is working in perfect order and that is not the cause. I have taken it to 4 different mechanics and no one can find anything as to why the front passenger fog/blinker is the only thing affected and why it is not consistent. It also effects from my right front passenger hazard light it will work if the fob/blinker is working that day. And the hazard will not work if the other ones are not functional that day. This has been happening for over a year now since last February of 2015 buy I cannot recall the exact date also the mileage was approx. 120,000.

2 Hazard Flashing Warning Light Unit problem

Failure Date: 03/12/2012

We parked our 2008 Dodge caliper for three days and when we drove next the head light switch would not activate the head lights at all, the auxiliary driving lights would not work, the wind shied wipers will not work (front or back) the wind shield washer will not work. The head lights do come on automatic when you start the vehicle and then they stay on until you turn the ignition switch off. The hazard lights will come on and flash but that is the only thing that is connected to the driver’s column that will work. This is a safety problem because of the lack of lighting capability, the wind shield washers not working. I have goggled this problem and the same problem has happened on the Dodge avenger and there are several entries of the problem happening on the Dodge caliper.
