Section 8 (Engine Controls - System/Component Tests): Introduction
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Volvo 960, 1994 Volvo 940, and 1994 Volvo 850. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Information for 850 turbo not available from manufacturer.
Before testing separate components or systems, perform procedures in BASIC TESTING article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section. Since many computer-controlled and monitored components set a trouble code if they malfunction, also perform procedures in G - TESTS W/ CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section, see below.
- 850 Non-Turbo, see: TESTS W/CODES - NON-TURBO

- 940, see: TESTS W/CODES - LH 2.4/EZK 116 IGNITION
- 960, see: TESTS W/CODES
NOTE:
Testing individual components does not isolate shorts or opens. Unless stated otherwise in test procedure, perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance. Use ohmmeter to isolate wiring harness shorts or opens.
