    My Volvo 240 gives me 2 codes when I do the diagnostic test. It's says
    on pin 2: 2-3-2 and pin 6: 1-4-4. Where should I start too look to
    fix this problem? Can anyone help me?

    I go here for codes, but not sure they are the
    same for a 240.

    Looks like:

    A2 232 Long-term fuel trim, at idle, at upper or lower limits

    A6 144 Ignition control module load signal missing

    For 2-3-2, start with vacuum leaks and fuel pressure.

    For 1-4-4, the ignition module gets load information from the fuel
    computer to set the advance curve. There's not much that can go wrong
    to cause this code that doesn't involve the few wires that connect the 2
    control units. I'd just clear this one and see if it comes back.

    Replace tt with t (twice!) and remove parentheses to email me directly.
    (But I check the newsgroup more often than this email address.)

    I have checked for vacuum leaks but all hoses and tubes are OK, How high
    should the fuel pressure be?

    I have tried to reset but it won't reset. Is there another way to reset?

    Resetting procedure only works if all codes have been read.
    You should make sure of this by comtinue reading procedure until you see the
    first code once again.
    Of course if you get the same code ( here 2-3-2) rigth away this is the only
    code stored.
    Unplugging the battery will delete all codes, but you migth not have read
    them all.
