engine stall / no start / codes available 850 1993

Dear Frank,
thanks a lot for your help!
When I came home yesterday, I cleared all the codes and started the car. Drove around a bit, all fine. Then I decided to drive to my workshop to check for the wiring loom and connections, and on my way the car shut off again and did not restart. Checked codes, 3-1-4 camshaft sensor. Cleared codes again, tried to start, nope. Checked codes again, 3-1-4.
So it points to the camshaft sensor. I called my friendly Volvo dealer and talked to the parts guy. He says that failure of these sensors is not uncommon.
So I ordered the part and will get it on friday.
Left the car beside the road (in town) and walked home. Who says Volvo does nothing for your health....

I'll let you how it works out, best
Stefan
