Does receiver have to be programmed to car?
Next step is to see if the receiver is sending any voltage to central lockong control unit...once I can find it
Any help appreciated

When my 1996 850 fob stopped working...I just removed the fuse for the immobilser (which also stops your central locking from working) and changed the central locking relay to allow me to manually use my central locking with the key (with no need for the fob). I know the fob is fixable but I've decided to not fix it due to the risk of it stopping working ad-hoc. I know this is a common issue and a lot of 850 choose to simplify things afterwards. I hope that helps.
