I have had this problem for about 2 months. I took my whole cluster to an electronics repair shop and asked them to re-solder the entire board inside the cluster. Afterwards, the problem was still there but I noticed that when I put a little bit of pressure on the heatsink, the whole cluster would come back on. So I took it back to the same shop and they made a shim to mount over the heatsink and so far there are no problems and its been 2 weeks.

Does the solderings you refer to are inside the cluster itself?
Thanks

This is not a fault - it's characteristics for Volvo.
The solderings are sloppy made and with a little oxidizing the problems start.
Find a shop which does electronics and let them go through all the soldered connections. Make sure that there's no loose wires anywhere.

Check your fuses. Usually just a $5.00 fix =)
Any black fuses or fuses that rattle are not good.

2001 volvo s60....turn signals on instrument panel blink fast, but when using 4 way flashers they are right speed

Check the turn signals outside of the car while they are on. Usually when they blink quickly, it is an indication that a bulb has burned out.
