My Volvo 240 gives me 2 codes when I do the diagnostic test. It's says
on pin 2: 2-3-2 and pin 6: 1-4-4. Where should I start too look to
fix this problem? Can anyone help me?

I go here for codes, but not sure they are the
same for a 240.

A2 232 Long-term fuel trim, at idle, at upper or lower limits
A6 144 Ignition control module load signal missing

For 2-3-2, start with vacuum leaks and fuel pressure.
For 1-4-4, the ignition module gets load information from the fuel
computer to set the advance curve. There's not much that can go wrong
to cause this code that doesn't involve the few wires that connect the 2
control units. I'd just clear this one and see if it comes back.

I have checked for vacuum leaks but all hoses and tubes are OK, How high
should the fuel pressure be?
I have tried to reset but it won't reset. Is there another way to reset?

Got it! changed the fuelfilter and unplugged the battery for a while

Resetting procedure only works if all codes have been read.
You should make sure of this by comtinue reading procedure until you see the
first code once again.
Of course if you get the same code ( here 2-3-2) rigth away this is the only
code stored.
Unplugging the battery will delete all codes, but you migth not have read
them all.
