Re: Need/WTB: 850 door rod, tracs switch

Bumping up, someone take pity on me :). I wasted another hour today fishing around for the rod. It's in the bottom of the door (couldn't have gone anywhere else) but I suspect it's wedged under/behind some of the foam...and I can't seem to find it (pen LED light, mirror, etc). Been driving around fo...

Need/WTB: 850 door rod, tracs switch

Any chance someone can get something at the yard for me? Havn't had a 850/960 in the yard near me in 5 months...and it's one stupid part I need at the moment.... You know...that door rod that falls out of the locks because the bushings crack and you can't open it from the inside anymore. Yeah...I ne...

Re: 1994 850 turbo help de-bugger my A/C

I will scan it and report back. After replacing the ECC and clearing the codes I didn't get another one.

The AC/Recirc buttons arn't flashing either.

Re: 1994 850 turbo help de-bugger my A/C

I cleaned the temp sensors but no change. The auto TEMP seems to work fine....its the AUTO FAN CONTROL/speed that doesn't work when it is on AUTO.

Re: 1994 850 turbo help de-bugger my A/C

I didn't want to tear into the car in the summer for fear of having NO A/C at all, but today (now that it's cooling off a bit) took the plunge. Previous owner apparently had a bad ECC. The blower resister was jumped with a relay to ground, and the AC compressor wire was also in the mix which caused ...

Re: 1994 850 turbo help de-bugger my A/C

Will report back after I hunt around in the car. Only one wire was clipped behind the EEC, as far as I can tell it's the signal wire. I'll have to dig on the blower resister further....the fact that I have no fan control and it runs on high only perhaps means it's been either rigged or jumped to jus...

1994 850 turbo help de-bugger my A/C

Apparently something on the AC broke with the previous owner. What they have done is bypass the climate control completely with a single pushbutton switch. This runs the fan on high and the AC comp on. I assume because the climate control unit broke and they thought saving $50 on a used on was too m...

Re: 1994 850 turbo A1 - 322 code

Great site! I figured I had nothing to loose at this point (except another hour) so I took apart what I had. Tar....it must have had tar in it. Cleaned it all out, squirted some dielectric grease in there and popped it back together. Car is great! Starts in P and N, reverse lights come on and no mor...

Re: 1994 850 turbo A1 - 322 code

I agree...and thought it might be the switch as well. I put the old switch back in (without bolting it up, just plugging it in). Rotating it through where R would be (with the car physically in R) didn't get the lights to turn on either (or start). Can't figure out what I could have missed...but may...

Re: 1994 850 turbo A1 - 322 code

Well....finally got around to swapping out the switch. Guess what....nothing. No reverse lights, no start, nothing. I unplugged the MAF, removed the IC hose, airbox, batt tray and battery. Not new at wrenching on cars but this is my first volvo. Acts like there is no switch there. Won't start, becau...
