Hi Klaus, (I tried to answer you this AM but the auto reply feature gagged.)

Thanks for weighing in.

My 850 draws about 18ma and it jumps around a bit, which must be normal, with the clock, alarm, CPU and whatever that's
always connected. His battery just came off a charger and was 12.6V after we were done. I didn't check the charging volts
yesterday. The 48ma draw doesn't seem too bad except this car is not his daily driver and if it sits around for maybe
2-3 weeks the battery is too weak to crank. 1.152Amps/day doesn't sound like it should croak a good battery eh?

I was wondering if the alternator could draw current with some failure there, and the only wire I could see easily must have been
the D+ wire, which I pulled with no change in the 48ma draw.

We'll go after the brake switch fault, I cleared the 142/141 codes. Gotta see if it resets those codes.

I can't find info about A6-113 code, and it won't clear, maybe the computer has a problem??

I wish I had a Volvo Greenbook for 850 wiring/troubleshooting.

Bill
