There is not +12V at the blue/yellow lead that connects to the solenoid, so I likely do have a break somewhere.

Wire colors are very different between 200 and 700 cars. You have no B/Y wire to the starter solenoid. It is probably Blue/Geen, as shown in my '93 940 diagrams. (900 and 700 are essentially alike, and common circuit wire colors stay the same over many years.

The "Service Socket" on my car has a Blue plug on the end of the pink wire. Yours may have a Black plug, but it should be in the same place (next to the air box, with barely enough slack wire toget at the female flat terminal. There shold be no +12 there untin the ignition switch is turnned to III.
