Pressure Switch w/ no turbo? Any worries I should have? 200

I guess my car was originally a turbo. The pressure switch is still in the engine compartment. I was trying to figure out where the yellow wire hanging off it should be connected. Anyways I posted and now I can't erase the message. Anyone need a pressure switch? Below was my question before I realized I don't need it without the turbo. I replaced the engine harness last winter. If it was a turbo before then would the past owner have to of replaced the ecu's in the car? Did I put the wrong harness in, most likely not, but anyways bad post.


The pressure switch (page 252-5 bentley) on my 83 245 has a yellow wire that is stripped and extends about 5 inches from the switch then is cut. I'm not sure when this happened, I just bought the car last year and have been replacing everything it seems. I replaced the engine harness this past winter and have to wonder if I had pulled the wire then or if its always been that way. It looks like it should have a connector or something as shown in the bentley. I've only seen one of these in all the numerous volvos I've encountered in the junk yard but that one was laying on the drivers floor and the wiring didn't seem the same as mine. (it was an 82 I believe) Anyone know anything about these or have an 83 that they could help me out with. Thanks.
