Yep. A little tough to see...and typical Volvo take apart to get there. Thanks again.

Re: 1994 850 No start. Code help please.

Yep!

One more stupid question. How do you get the connector out of the bracket without destroying it?

...and thanks to all for helping me work though this!

Re: 1994 850 No start. Code help please.

Thanks Misha. Just getting back to it here. Went to get it and it started right up and drove it back to the house.

Decided to start form the beginning. It had a number of codes- some relevant some not and could have been a year ago for all I know. Wrote them all down and cleared the "A" box. When ...

Re: 1994 850 No start. Code help please.

Thanks abscate. I will look into the cts. The saga continues...

The car was running fine for a day or two and seemed stable...and I sold it.

She made it about 20 miles to the mall to run an errand, came out and it wouldn't start. Being a decent guy, it's back and I'm back on the problem. When it ...

Re: 1994 850 No start. Code help please.

Thanks Misha.

It's gotten a bit stranger. Got the batt issue resolved. I then let it sit for a day and it started right up. Today I was cleaning it up getting ready to post it for sale and I'm back to no start for no apparent reason. I noticed a couple of little issues that I'm sure someone has ...

Re: 1994 850 No start. Code help please.

Update. After some reading I locked/unlocked the doors 3 times as the battery was dead prior to the no start. Now starts. Flashing arrow and solid CEL. I'm surprised there aren't other codes. This was my daughter's car that lived in MD for the last 4 years. Coil and ICM are new of as of last week as ...

223 Throttle position (TPS) sensor signal too low

Nothing from A2 or A6

Flashing Up arrow on the dash. Cranks- no ...

1994 850 Horn fix anyone? Baltimore area

Hi all,

I have a 1994 850 that my daughter drives and she's in the Baltimore area. Wondering if there is someone handy in the area that could do the horn fix for her for a reasonable amount. I will supply the kit if you'd like, or grommets would do it appears according to the write up. Thanks in ...

Re: 01 V70 LCA install not going as planned...

Alright, so I'll answer my own question. As I mentioned, I have seen various write ups and vids on this with different approaches. It is NOT necessary to remove the knuckle to do ball joints in these, nor is it necessary to remove the outer CV shaft bolt although I see this repeatedly in the vids ...

01 V70 LCA install not going as planned...

I've done some reading on this and am a bit confused. Doing lower control arms, etc. on an '01 V70 wagon. I've done many 850's and figured it wouldn't be much different- things are flopped around a bit but NBD.

I did happen to pick up the JTC-4225 to do the ball joints- worth every penny. Anyway ...
