That doesn't sound good. Electrical issues scare the bejeezus out of me. Sounds like a shorted relay or switch... Perhaps some long time Volvo owner has experienced this with a Volvo and knows where to start, sorry to say, that's not me. Good Luck.

Try swapping out the relay with a known good one. If that solves the problem, all you need is a new relay. Common failure with age.

Make sure the bulb is not bad.

I would check the socket and wiring leading to the socket.

Sounds like a grounding issue for another nearby circuit, that is using the turn signal as a ground, thus it is on all the time.

15 year old post... Diagnostics advise is the same however - check the relay then check power and ground points
