Re: No tail lights when in reverse

Yes I checked ALL the rear lights including the "third" light works when they are supposed to work. I am getting an A3 error code 142 "stop lamp switch faulty" and 141 "pedal signal faulty-shorted to ground" Anyone have any ideas on this or am I just going to ignore it ...

Re: no codes on 95 .850

I had that happen to me once....check to make sure all the fuses that are supposed to be in are in and none are burned out. I had one I pulled out for a dumb reason and the socket it applied to did as you described until I put it back in...works fine now. All the codes descriptions can be found at h...

Re: Is this a potential vacuum leak source?

Ok my '95 850T gave me a check engine light and the following A2 code 315 which say "EVAP System" and an A2 code 435 "Catalytic Converter Efficiency Low" ... and also a code 435 "Slow Front O2 Sensor" Is this EVAP the same thing pictured above and is this a major issue?...

Re: Transmission intermitent problems on 95 Turbo

Well my Flashing Arrow and transmission problems have been put to rest. Cleaned up the PNP switch, drained and added a fresh transmission fluid (roughly 4-5 quarts} and everything is working smoothly. And no more error codes or check engine light emanating from this issue. That PNP switch was so dir...

No tail lights when in reverse

I have a '95 850t. Noticed recently that the dashboard 'bulb' warning light goes on when I press the break. All light bulbs appear to be working, none burned out, even swapped them around to make sure. However in checking, we found that when put in reverse no back up lights illuminate [again bulbs a...

Re: AC clicking on and off repeatedly in OFF position

Hi Lee, Well as I said, the AC can run ice cold for several hours or can just click off without warning. Plenty of freon it seems, probably a shim issue there eventually. But this is just the normal on/off switch clicking on and off repeatedly in the 'off' position. Most of the time after several fl...

Re: Transmission intermitent problems on 95 Turbo

I am pretty sure that the A1 was giving me the 1-1-1 all clear signal. Will make sure next time it happens. Where do I find the transmission speed sensor on the engine? Easy or hard to replace? Anything else you can share about it?

Transmission intermitent problems on 95 Turbo

Ok this is probably far more important than my AC issues so I saved the best for last as it were. I have a 1995 850 Turbo sedan, roughly 225k miles. Every so often I can feel the transmission not shifting normally let alone smoothly and RPMs running at a higher than normal and of course this is when...

AC clicking on and off repeatedly in OFF position

I have been searching the forums to see if there is already an answer but do not see anything that fits. I have a 1995 850 Turbo. My current AC problem is that when in the OFF position [light is supposed to be on] I see and hear the AC clicking on and off and then the light is just off and AC will b...
