A1 and A3 code information? I need a few opinions... 850

Hello everyone,

My girlfriend recently acquired a 1995 850 Turbo and I am accustomed to the older, RWD Volvos. She purchased the car only a few weeks ago, and the check engine light is now on (as is the transmission up arrow). I pulled two codes from the A3 port and one from the A1 port (A1 is transmission diagnostics, I believe), but none from the A2 location. A2 codes are the only ones that I can seem to find online. The codes are as follows: 213 and 214 from A3, 322 from A1. I contacted a local Volvo Master Tech to find out what these codes mean. He informed me of what each code meant, but I don't know for sure what could have caused these codes (they keep recurring, so they are not just a coincidence). Has anyone else here ever encountered these codes before? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
