Re: 1995 Volvo 850 no spark but will crank. Code P0120.
I had this issue and ended up having a short in the harness. In order to fix it, I would have to pull the engine. Instead I sold the car. Notorious electrical issues.

Re: 1995 Volvo 850 no spark but will crank. Need help ASAP!!
Just as an update. I have replaced the ignition coil and it still is having the same problem. Any idea anyone?

OK so the core issue is that there is no spark coming from the ignition coil. Here is what I did. I replaced the cam sensor and the crank sensor as I though one of those were the issue. I tested the ignition coil and it is fine (it is getting the proper voltage). I checked all the ground wires and t...

How there been a solution for this yet. I have the same issue with my 850. I replaced the cam and crank sensor. The Ignition Coil tested fine. I am thinking it is a short in the wiring harness, but I cant find any short yet.
