The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Volvo published for the 940, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.

Yes. Full wiring diagrams are part of every 940 manual, alongside repair procedures, specifications and diagnostic information.
Does the manual cover 940 recalls?
3 recalls are on federal record across the 1991–1995 940, listed by year below. The manual carries the manufacturer's diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems involved; the recall repairs themselves are performed free by Volvo dealers.
Why do some 940 years cost more?
Every 940 year is $29.99.
