Fault codes

Post by uncovered »

Hi folks,
I got two faults on my 1993 850 estate and I would like to clarify just where these are and how they can be rectified if possible.

Fault 3.1.4 Camshaft position signal missing or defective?
&
Fault 1.2.1 Mass Airflow Sensor?

Thanks by the way for describing how to get the fault codes without having to fork out for a computer print out.

Its ok folks I found out what they where.
I had taken off the camshaft senor and never connected it properly and tried to start the car and it logged the code and I fogot about it.
I never touched the mass airflow but I believe its a common fault and will look into getting another oen as I have noticed the car is seriously underpowered.
