'98 S90 Turn Signal Stuck

This one has me stumped. Anyone with any ideas? My 1998 S90's right side front and rear turn signal bulbs turn on (no flashing, just on!) along with the dashboard right turn indicator arrow anytime the key is in the run position. The situation does not change at all by moving the turn signal lever on the steering column, nor is it affected by turning on the "hazard warning" switch. When the key is in the off position, the hazard warning lights work correctly. Everything worked fine until today on my way home from the hardware store. I finished my one project, and could mark it off on my list and now this one comes up, now it's on my list. The list never goes away, does it? Someone HELP!

Maybe the hazard switch/flasher relay has failed. I found that the flasher relay was part of the hazard switch on my 1988 760 Turbo Wagon.

Replace all the bulbs. two soldered points melt and short over time. it is either the right front or rear. But just replace em all. I ran into this about two years ago.

Here is my original post: https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums ... 97#p190197

I did purchase a replacement hazards relay from Volvo that I could not return. I WAS SO PISSED! If this is what you find is wrong, I'll sell it to you for less than Volvo would charge plush shipping.
