Starter circuit

Post by bergerdon »

The engine won't start with the key. in the Chilton book it showes from the key to a anti theft relay. Where is this relay located. What procedure would be needed to trace the starter circuit? 1996 850 volvo

The wiring diagrams that are available for download
here at MVS include component locations. And they're
actual Volvo diagrams. I'd trust them over Chilton's.
