2018 JEEP CHEROKEE turn signal bulb

During normal operation, after placing the
keyless ignition in the ON/RUN mode, the
Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three
seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains
on after the bulb check, it indicates that
there is a problem with the electronics. In
addition, if the light begins to flash after the
bulb check, it indicates that someone used
an invalid key fob to try to start the engine.
Either of these conditions will result in the
engine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during
normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for
longer than 10 seconds), it indicates that
there is a fault in the electronics. Should this
occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as
possible by an authorized dealer.
VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
— IF EQUIPPED
This vehicle security alarm monitors the ve-
hicle doors, hood, liftgate, and ignition for
unauthorized operation. While the vehicle
security alarm is armed, interior switches for
door locks and liftgate release are disabled. If
something triggers the vehicle securityalarm, the horn will sound for 29 seconds
and turn off all of the visual signals after an
additional 31 seconds. If the triggering de-
vice is not deactivated, the horn will sound
again after a five second delay for another
29 seconds. If the trigger remains present,
this cycle will repeat for up to five minutes.
To Arm The System
Follow these steps to arm the vehicle security
alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle’s ignition is placed
in the “OFF” mode.
• For vehicles equipped with Keyless En- try, make sure the vehicle’s keyless
ignition system is OFF.
2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the vehicle:
• Push the lock button on the interior power door lock switch with the driver
and/or passenger door open.
• Push the lock button on the exterior Passive Entry Door Handle with a valid
key fob available in the same exterior zone. Refer to "Doors" in "Getting To
Know Your Vehicle" in your Owner’s
Manual for further information.
• Push the lock button on the key fob.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
To Disarm The System
The vehicle security alarm can be disarmed
using any of the following methods:

Front And Rear Fog Lights — If Equipped
The fog light switches are built into the head-
light switch.
To activate the front fog lights, push the
upper half of the headlight switch. To turn off
the front fog lights, push the upper half of the
headlight switch a second time.
To activate the rear fog lights, push the
lower half of the headlight switch. To turn off
the rear fog lights, push the lower half of the
headlight switch a second time.
NOTE:
To turn on the rear fog lamps, the low beam
lamps or front fog lamps must first be active.
An indicator light in the instrument cluster
illuminates when the fog lights are turned on.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down
and the arrows on each side of the in-
strument cluster display flash to show
proper operation of the front and rear
turn signal lights. NOTE:
• If either light remains on and does not
flash, or there is a very fast flash rate, check
for a defective outside light bulb. If an
indicator fails to light when the lever is
moved, it would suggest that the indicator
bulb is defective.
•
When the Daytime Running Lights are on and
a turn signal is activated, the Daytime Run-
ning Lamp will turn off on the side of the
vehicle in which the turn signal is flashing.
The Daytime Running Lamp will turn back on
when the turn signal is turned off.
Lane Change Assist
Tap the lever up or down once, without mov-
ing beyond the detent, and the turn signal
(right or left) will flash three times. Then,
automatically turn off.
Automatic Headlight Leveling —
HID Headlights Only
This feature prevents the headlights from
interfering with the vision of oncoming driv-
ers. Headlight leveling automatically adjusts
the height of the headlight beam in reaction
to changes in vehicle pitch.

WARNING LIGHTS AND
MESSAGES
The warning/indicator lights will illuminate in
the instrument panel together with a dedi-
cated message and/or acoustic signal when
applicable. These indications are indicative
and precautionary and as such must not be
considered as exhaustive and/or alternative
to the information contained in the Owner’s
Manual, which you are advised to read care-
fully in all cases. Always refer to the informa-
tion in this chapter in the event of a failure
indication. All active telltales will display first
if applicable. The system check menu may
appear different based upon equipment op-
tions and current vehicle status. Some tell-
tales are optional and may not appear.
Red Warning Lights
— Seat Belt Reminder Warning Light
This light indicates when the driver or pas-
senger seat belt is unbuckled. When the
ignition is first placed in the ON/RUN or
ACC/ON/RUN position and if the driver’s seat
belt is unbuckled, a chime will sound and thelight will turn on. When driving, if the driver
or front passenger seat belt remains unbuck-
led, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will flash or
remain on continuously and a chime will
sound. Refer to “Occupant Restraint Sys-
tems” in “Safety” for further information.
— Air Bag Warning Light
This light indicates a fault with the air bag,
and will turn on for four to eight seconds as a
bulb check when the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN or ACC/ON/RUN position. This light
will illuminate with a single chime when a
fault with the air bag has been detected, it
will stay on until the fault is cleared. If the
light is either not on during startup, stays on,
or turns on while driving, have the system
inspected at an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
— Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions,
including brake fluid level and parking brake
application. If the brake light turns on it may
indicate that the parking brake is applied,
that the brake fluid level is low, or that there
is a problem with the anti-lock brake system.
If the light remains on when the parking
brake has been disengaged, and the fluid
level is at the full mark on the master cylinder
reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hy-
draulic system malfunction or that a problem
with the Brake Booster has been detected by
the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) / Elec-
tronic Stability Control (ESC) system. In this
case, the light will remain on until the condi-
tion has been corrected. If the problem is
related to the brake booster, the ABS pump
will run when applying the brake, and a brake
pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve
braking capacity in the event of a failure to a
portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in
either half of the dual brake system is indi-
cated by the Brake Warning Light, which will
turn on when the brake fluid level in the
master cylinder has dropped below a speci-
fied level.
The light will remain on until the cause is
corrected.

Bi-Xenon High Intensity Discharge (HID)
Headlamps — If Equipped
The headlamps contain a type of high voltage
discharge light source. High voltage can re-
main in the circuit even with the headlamp
switch off. Because of this, you should not
attempt to service a HID headlamp light source yourself. If an HID headlamp light
source fails, take your vehicle to an autho-
rized dealer for service.
NOTE:
On vehicles equipped with HID headlamps,
when the headlamps are turned on, there is a
blue hue to the lights. This diminishes and
becomes more white after approximately
10 seconds, as the system charges.
WARNING!
A transient high voltage occurs at the bulb
sockets of HID headlamps when the head-
lamp switch is turned ON. It may cause
serious electrical shock or electrocution if
not serviced properly. See your authorized
dealer for service.
