OBD-I is notorious for being a bit blind to component failure.... and it can only detect electrical failure in most cases, not mechanical. Most of the sensors do not have 3rd signal wires so their ECU cant detect if the sensor or control valve is at a correct position for the setting given.

Basically if an OBD-I system gives you a correct code for the failing component, you are lucky.
