Default flashy rec & ac illuminations!

My turn for this I guess !!

Anyway, since mine is a 95 wagon, am I right in thinking that standing huddled over the little boxs under the hood will result in me locating meaninful codes? And if so, where do I put the jumper and what do I press for climate control feedback? I assume I can get this on a 95?

I suspect 2 or 3 possibilities, feel free to tell me if they sound way off;

1. I recently replaced the blower motor, not the resistor.
2. My blend and response to different air direction is sluggish occasionallly.
3. My A/C is noisy when working, and doesn't appear to be low on freon.

Cheers,

95 was a split year. If you have a coin holder on your center console then you have OBDII for pulling codes, if you don't have the coin holder then you're right huddling over the little boxes underneath the hood will give you the codes you're looking for.

I believe the jumper is on the B box, but I'm not sure which one exactly. http://www.troublecodes.net/Volvo/ will show you how to access trouble codes.

I would think the code would have to do with reason #2. When my blower died I didn't get any codes and I had to replace both motor and resistor.
