Hello Spook,

Thanks for getting me started on the SRS 2-1-2 code fix. You led me directly to the problem. The orange wire under the airbag module was indeed broken and it is my opinion that it was broken from when the airbag was deployed after the collision in 2000.
I found a manual online at:
http://www.volvotips.com/index.php/940-960/volvo-960-service-repair-manual/volvo-960-airbag-service-manual/

It is also for 940s and I'm wondering if it is the same as the TP32231/1 tech manual you mentioned. The manual was pretty good at leading me through the fix and I took the airbag and spring from my parts car and put it on the problem car and the problem was fixed i.e. no more SRS codes.
I also changed the passenger seat belt since it did not deploy the charge when the driver's side did and they are supposed to deploy together.
It bothers me that when the collision occurred back in 2000, a very upscale body shop in Minneapolis repaired the car. I found the paperwork in the glove compartment. How could the body shop put an undeployed airbag module on the car and not change the spring assembly and orange wire? The body shop is right across the street from Borton Volvo and works on upscale cars, Mercedes and etc. This seems highly dishonest since someone driving the car, not worrying or knowing about the SRS light on the dash, and getting in an accident could have been seriously injured when they could have avoided the injury if the airbag was fixed correctly. Okay, enough rambling.
But, thanks again for all your help. I have resolved other problems after reading your great posts.
