1994 Volvo 850 Where is the obd2 connector?

The 1994 Volvo 850 does not have an OBD2 connector. In fact, this car is instead in the OBD1 group. In order to read fault code ( Fuel injection, Ignition, Automatic transmission...) there is a Diagnostic Test Unit located in the front right hand side of the engine compartment . It consists of two modules side by side, with a plastic cover on each one . After lifting the covers off, you can see the modules marked A and B, where each one has six numbered sockets.
