Transmission Problem : 850 1995

Recommended Posts

Ok well I went under this plastic cap looking for a sensor...

I thought it would be attached to the cable or something, but there wasn't anything close to the cable or the wheel that's attached to it....

I saw a few electrical connections to things that could be sensors in that general area, but I don't really know what I'm looking for!

Could anyone give me more information?

Thanks!

Follow the throttle cable to the throttle body. Remove the plastic cover that hides it...

If you pull the cable (or have someone push the accelerator) you will see a pulley rotate. There is a rod attached to this pulley that also moves. It's hard to describe, but if you look at it when you move the cable you will see what I mean. This rod rotates a servo that is the TPS.

Well I went to the Volvo dealer this morning....

They changed the TPS sensor, which solved code 223.

Then they changed the starter switch and a potientiometer, which solved 243 code in the engine.

Cost : 355$ CDN, taxes inc. (15% here!)

So I guess its not too bad...

Thank you all for your posts!
