hey hows it going, i have a 1995 850 glt, non turbo. the other day i was at school and walking to my car to go home the car wouldnt start, i kept turning the key because there was power in the car, it wasnt turning over, just click, and then it started, i thought it was the starter, but it didnt do it again for like another week, and this time, when i kept starting the alarm horn, i didnt even know the car came with an alarm, so i took the key out and put it back in and it started right up, but it hasnt done it again ever since, does anyone have any idea..thanks...

Not being sarcastic....possible operator error with the alarm system. I have actually done it with my car. (at a Volvo meet no less :lol: ) I accidentally hit the lock on the key fob while sitting in the car. Went to start the car right after and triggered the alarm.

Have you tried the jiggling/ re-crimping the little green wire & clear plug at the starter( pop the starter cover off, you'll see it).

Happened to me twice, & had it towed twice for the same symptoms, for a 2 minute fix.
