It is possible you are looking at the page for the 1994 960 and not the 940. The 960 had one (serpentine) belt. Your 940 has three. Hopefully chiltons has the repair order for the 940s as well.
I know it's not alot, but I hope it helps
you've probably fixed it by now, but just in case.
The relay is mounted behind the ash tray and pocket under the radio. First pull up on the bottom rail under the ash tray. It should come out. Now remove the black cover around the 12v outlet. It has a cover that can be pulled off with a small screw driver. Remove the two phillips screws (if there still there) and pull the pocket out of the way. Now you should be staring into a rather large hole.
I apologize, but I can't remember the exact position. I would suggest clicking the switch and feeling for the relay clicking. The Chilton's manual hopefully shows it somewhere.
Before you replace it I would put the car up in the air and check the wire that comes out of the bottom of the gear shift housing over the transmission. The wire rubs on the housing and grounds out the system. Check the wire carefully from end to end for tears or contact with anything metal. If there is repair or replace the wire and see if it works.
If not then try the relay.
Also, you can try brickboard.com for other fault tracing. brickboard.com it a great resource for older Volvos.
I hope this helps.
