Re: ABS Sensor

Have a look in the engine bay and see if you have the twin diagnostic sockets. they will be on the right hand side in front of the ECU box. If yes then you can read the codes from counting the LED pulses. My '93 850 had them but think they changed soon after. If it's not there then you'll need a cod...

Re: 850 2.5 20v 93 converting to 94 headlamps whats needed

Hi, It's just the headlamps, smaller indicators & headlight trim strips you need. No need to change bonnet, everything will just bolt straight in. There is a small problem with the lamp wash/wipe though which can be easily overcome by slightly enlarging the hole in the front of the trim strip so...

Re: Changing 850 radio need help

If it's a standard volvo radio then you won't need any tools. On either side of the front of the radio you will see two clips.
