The car listed above is a Limited. single turn signal doesn't work but hazard light blinks normally when the switch is turned on, wipers and horn too doesn't work. Mostly for the trafficator / turn signal what could make it to be inoperative and how can I fix the problem in that car? Can you guide me please, on the repair procedure and wiring diagram to help me fix the problem?

The first thing to do is check all the fuses, this guide can help, and I have included where the fuses are located in the car.

If all fuses are okay, it sounds like the TIPM needs to be replaced which is easy because it-self learns. To be sure you should do a CAN scan. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

TIPM, please what is it? How can I use a multimeter for now to conduct the test? Subsequently I'll get the CAN. The fuses are all okay. Except the fuse location labelled 5 at the trunk that I saw empty, when I wanted to install a fuse there, I saw a high electrical spike and I removed it immediately.

The TIPM is the "totally integrated power module" and it is difficult to test, I would send it to a rebuilder and have it tested. The CAN scanner can help confirm the issue.

Okay. I'll try to reach out to a laptop board engineer to test that for me. Please this is a continuation of the car question I posted. I have sent a video too. Please help me respond to that too. A wire for FCM was sent but I didn't know it's location. Please they should respond to the question as well.

This problem has just been fixed. It was an electrical issue from the fuse box. The wipers and turn signal switch are now working. Thank you for your assistance!

It was the rear fuse box.
