Recently the signal lights have also stopped working and the heat doesnt engage at all, the beeping and intermittent climate control was bearable but I dont want to drive without signal lights.
I am assuming it is all related, what could be the problem?
How's the battery condition? I believe, again believe, I read someone with really weird symptoms that were the result of a battery producing voltage lower than the computer systems needed.

Else, be sure the ground cable for the battery on the floor pan is getting a really good ground connection. Check the bolts holding down various fuse blocks to be sure they're tight and giving a good connection.

My bet's on the defective, worn-out battery.
