Hi All,
Been away from the board for a few years as my oldest daughter totaled our 940T a few years ago. Today I was given a 96" 850T wagon which my middle daughter will drive but has a few issues before road ready. The car has been sitting for about 10 months.
Steering very hard, previous owner says steering rack. Steering U-joint does not seem to be corroded but does feel like rack due to noise and slight bumping. Had similar issue on 940 and all I did was just flush system with new fluid and seemed to solve problem, other possible causes? Is replacing rack difficult if it comes to that?
Turn signals will not engage when I push the lever, will not even come on when I just hold it down in either direction? The hazards come on and function so bulbs work, is there a relay somewhere? Why won't the lever have a detent or stay down when I push it in either direction?
Headlights will not come on in the low beam when I turn o the switch, am I missing something simple? The high beams come on when I hold back the stalk but will not click and stay on, again no detent. Possible relation to turn signals?
The "ABS" light and "Tracks on" light stays on. I can push the "Tracks on" button but it does not engage. Relay?
The speedometer/odometer stopped working at 175K miles, probably has 200k miles now. Saw somewhere that ABS controller might have something to do with this, any suggestions?
There are a few more issues but these are the ones I need to fix to get it road ready. Sorry for the long post, good to be back in the "brick" family.
