I checked the codes and got

A1 2-3-2

A3 4-1-1, 4-1-2, 4-1-3, 4-1-4, 4-2-2, 4-4-4, 2-1-1, 2-1-3, 2-1-4, 4-4-3

A7 2-3-1 1-2-2

B5 2-1-2

cleared the codes, car ran normally cold but after 5 minutes it had problems shifting from 1-2 and 2-3 gear. Oil smell a little burnt to. Turned the car off and back on again and the same flashing arrow and E S modes lights came up (limp=mode as well). Is this a tranny problem and what should I do? Can somebody interpret the above codes particurarly 2-3-2.
Thanks

    Trans code 232 is "speed sensor signal absent" and on your '93 850, that's typically a bad speed sensor (fairly common). It's located on the trans just above the r side axle outlet and back (towards firewall) where you'll see its plug. Be sure to replace its o-ring too as I think it comes w/o one.

    BTW, if the fluid's burn't do flush it (Bay 13 instructions:
