How do I pull the engine codes from my Volvo 850 R?

Filed Under new cars

I have a 1997 Volvo 850 R sedan, and I am trying to figure out how to pull the engine codes for diagnostics of the vehicle. I know that it is OBDII compliant, so all I have to do is take it to a dealer or an autoparts store, but I would like to know myself where the plug is located for the OBDII reader. How do you pull the codes? Does all it take to pull the codes is a OBDII reader?

  • How does the turbo work on a 2000 volvo s40? If it does not work, does it affect the rest of the engine?

      Lift up the arm rest on the center console. Then remove the plastic plug that sits in front of the gear shift knob. The connector is under that plug.
