Well she's back up and running it was the ignition switch. Thanks for everyone's help.

Well I pulled the cam sensor just to check and make sure every thing was clean and not rusted, I did not find any problems. I also checked the voltage at the cam and maf sensors with the key in the on position, there was none. What its sounding like to me is that I will be checking on prices for ign...

The cam, crank and main sensor are new. I went to replace the speed sensor and I was told it would not stop the car from running so I took the part back. The meter I just bought and to tell the truth I do not know how to reset the code. Have not had much time to read the book. The crank was covered ...

I got a scanner and pulled a code: p0340.
Is there a web site that you can punch the codes into and have it elaborated on.
Thanks

I have now replace the main relay and still the some thing. I plan to check the sensors for voltage if none this means a bad ignition switch in the column correct. What else could I check? Could the piece that the cam sensor reads be bad. I also still have the fuel relay jumped I figured I would put...

I finaly got a scanning tool I pulled the code p0340. I have replace the cam and crank sensors. I figure it must be the main sensor. I found one for 18.00 new so its worth a shot.
cross your fingers thanks.

I have checked all fuses I tried pushing the key up and starting it nothing different. When I check the sensors for voltage should the car be cranking or the key in the on position. One thing that I discovered is the main sensor when the key is in the on position it does not click or make any noises...

Thanks I was told by a guy at a junk yard it could fry some electrical if the numbers do not match, but he was not sure. He had known of a nissan that the ECU was swapped with different numbers and did fry and it cost over a grand to fix. Whats the easiest way to find the engine code. just trying to...

There are several variations of numbers labled on the ECU's for the volvo 850 year 96. I believe there are 7 or so. I want to know will a ECU with different numbers work in my car. The ECU is coming from the same make modle and year.

Sorry no tester, looking to borrow one and if not buy one shortly. If it would start I would run it into autozone and have them test it but its been 3 days since it would start for me. Will the speed sensor shoot any voltage while the car is just cranking and do you think this is possibly the problem.
