1994 850 turbo diagnostic codes - check engine 850 1994

Check Engine light comes on and I follow all of the steps to read the codes. I have a 1994 850 turbo wagon and I inserted the plug into the A2 socket. The only code I get is 1-5-3. I checked out the ozbrick site for the code meanings and there is no 1-5-3 for my type of engine. There is a 1-5-3 for the 10 valve non-turbo which is "Rear heated oxygen sensor signal". I also followed instructions to read all of the codes until they repeat and 1-5-3 repeats so it must be the only code. I cannot reset the codes even after following the instructions to the 'T'. Is there something unique about the 94 850 turbo engine diagnostic system that the site below does not mention?

Thanks for any help...

    1994 850 turbo diagnostic codes - check engine 850 1994

    My book for the '95 Turbo says its the rear O2 sensor also. How old are the sensors? I would change either the rear or both to get rid of the code and fix the problem. Here's how I clear the DTC's on my '95:
    ....Once all faults have been corrected,turn the ignition switch to the ON position(engine not running). Recheck the codes,then depress the button for 5 seconds and release. After 3 seconds, the LED should light up. While the LED is lit,depress the button again for 5 seconds,when the button is released,the LED should go out.
    Thats always worked for me in the past. You can get the factory O2 sensors from FCPGroton.com for $115/$108 each. Good luck........... Mike
