Sorry for the late reply.

Your headlamp dimmer switch and turn are part of the same multifunction switch, correct. The problem may be either that switch or the wiring in steering column. As far as turn, what about the combination flasher?

You can check circuits into and from steering column, with proper wiring diagrams. For the system in question, if voltage into the steering column and none coming out when system is activated, the problem is somewhere in the steering column.

I realize this is an old post. You may no longer own this vehicle. In the future hope you don't have any vehicle issues, but, if you do, keep the site in mind. They are always working to improve the site and it's free.

Have a good day.

Suggested Repair

Check the multifunction switch, combination flasher, and steering column wiring with diagrams. If voltage enters the column but none leaves when the system is activated, the fault is in the column.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1999 Jeep Cherokee Limited reports no turn signals and high-beam problems. Replacing the signal switch did not help. The expert notes that the dimmer and turn functions share the multifunction switch and suggests checking that switch, the combination flasher, and circuits into and out of the steering column.
