No Start 850

If you DO NOT have spark or fuel, you may want to check the RPM sensor, a.k.a. Crankshaft Position Sensor. This sensor is a permissive; during a start, the engine must attain at least 2500 RPM, at which time this sensor will send a signal permitting fuel and spark. If it is defective and does not send the proper signal, you can crank all day, and nothing will happen.

It is located at the rear of the engine block at the top of the flywheel on the transmission bell housing.

If this unit is defective, it should set a code.

CODE Fenix 5.2 System
The Fenix 5.2 system is used on the 10 valve non turbocharged 850

PROBABLE CAUSE for Volvo vehicles
1-3-1 Ignition System RPM signal
