Understanding fault code 850 1996

Forgot to mention, I believe the drive cycle madeinjapan mentioned is driving the car two to three times to normal operating temperature (at least that is what happened with my car after clearing the code). The code will set itself temporarily the first time you drive the car, or when the problem is first noticed by the computer and then the second time the problem is noticed by the computer, the CEL will come on. I think it does this to keep "false alarm" codes from being set.
