Default 01 S60 questions

I just bought an 01 S60 a couple weeks ago. Just have a few questions to start with. I researched and didnt find too many answers so here goes.
1) Left turn signal keeps going out saying that I have a bulb failure. Changed the bulb and still does it, but not all the time. Ill be driving and it will go out, then 2 minutes later it will work fine. I read on here that it is a common problem and the entire housing for the turn signal should be replaced at a cost of $10, thats fine, where can I get that??
2) The light in my dash where it tells you what gear your in, the time, and the outside temp is out. Any help on what to do for that would be appreciated.
3) Drivers side door **** broke so now I have to roll down the window and open from outside, which is rather embarrasing. I read that if I took the door apart the problem could be fixed rather easily but if not then would I have to buy a whole new door panel and mechanism?
I love the car. It is an everyday driver for me, I have an 04 Cobra that I wanted to keep the miles off of. I will continue to keep up on the maintenance aspects of the vehicle but dont want to spend too much on it since all my extra car money goes towards the Cobra. Any help would be appreciated since this site has the most info on these cars. Im sure that I will have more questions but these are just to get the ball rolling. My name is Jason and I am from Peoria Illinois. Thanks guys.

Question 01 s60

As for the light in the dashboard go to www.ipdusa.com If the part isn't listed on the website give them a call. As for the light socket & interior door handle, either get it from Volvo parts dept or keep an eye out for it on eBay Just make sure the light socket is new not used. You can also give this website a try also - www.fcpgroton.com Good luck

The front turn signals in the S60 have a known weak spot in the bulb socket to wire connection. Go to a volvo store and get some. Get both while you're at it. Also let me guess it does it when its warmer out?

As for the door handle, You have to take the interior door panel off and hook up or replace whatever broke. Go slowly with taking the door off there are some wires galore attached to it.
