1993 940 Wagon - Found broken wire!

[brianinmaine]

As a heads up to others:
I was having trouble with stalling and no starts. I have the wiring diagrams and checked for power at the computers and fuse 1. When it wouldn't start, I only had ~3 volts! I ended up finding a wire bolted on the positive terminal on the battery was broken down to a few strands and came off easily. I crimped on a new connector and soldered it. What a pain to hook all those wires to the same terminal! Just something simple to check out...
Good luck!

mileage: ~380,000 with no signs of stopping!
