I'm troubleshooting some static and popping noises coming from my stereo. I replaced my AMP1 with a known-good unit, but I'm still having audio issues. Someone today told me to double check all of the grounds as a first step. I'm trying to find the ground under the front, left hand seat...

Hello! I am looking for some help for my 2003 saab 9-3 vector! I just replaced the amp1 and the radio but I’m still not getting any noise from turn signals, and my radio will not turn on but the nightpanel is still working! Please someone help I’ve had the car for a year now and I’m ready for...

I bought my 04 9-3 about two years ago and the previous owner had looped the fiber optics due to a failed amp 1, I’m getting tired of how it’s sounding and I bought a decent used amp but I’m wondering if I can possibly unloop the fiber optics and just put them back into the wiring harness? I...

I have a 2003 Saab 9-3 Vector with the Prestige 300 sound system - so 13 speakers total. Like most others, I think the sound quality is ok and the fiberoptic amps are dumb. I'm fairly familiar with the system, so I'm aware of the AMP 1 problems, as well as using the power button to fade to one...

Hi everybody First of all, let me apologize for my english. I'm Italian and i live in Italy, and while I can easily read english I'm very rarely required to WRITE in English, so expect several gross mistakes. My 93 Aero V6 has just reached the 10 years mark, being one of the first ever sold. I...

After 5 months, new 6.5" speakers, 2 different amp1 units, and new EHU, I finally figured out what the problem with my door speakers were. It hit me after I had 2 different amps giving the EXACT same 'popping noise' in the door speakers. Turns out there was something wrong with the wires going...

Hello - I am new to the forum and been looking at Saabs the past couple months. I have come across a 2006 9-3 Arc with a non-functioning radio. I have read about Amp 1 failing and looked online to see that part is about $900. Any suggestions on other possible fixes for a non functioning radio...

Hello, I'm new to this site and also very new to speakers and electrical components of a saab. I started noticing issues with the sound coming out of my front door speaker when my car was left in the garage untouched for about 5 months. The battery was completely drained, had to get a new...

Hi, I have a 2005 9-3 linear with the 7 speakers setup. I have the car for a month now and I really love it, except for the sound system right now. I've spent alot of time on the forums trying to figure out what was the best option to upgrade the poor quality oem speakers. So far I've installed...

2006 Saab 9-3. My rear 6X9 began making a strange thumping noise, then a day later my stereo cut out completely (i.e. display won't even turn on). When that happened my turn signals stopped making noise. Checked the fuses and they are fine. I then pulled both Amp1 and Amp2. Photos below. A...

A loud rhythmic thumping noise occurs when my stereo is on that drowns out the radio. - I have the factory stereo system in a 2006 saab 93t -Occurs when the unit is on (i.e. radio or CD), volume of thumping (loud) does not vary if the radio is turned up or down - It did this once before for...

My AMP1 under my driver's seat is out. Can anyone out there please provide me with some good instructions on how to run a bypass? Someone please help, sick and tired of no radio. Thanks!

While driving over the weekend (2003 arc) I got the following three messages "abs brake", "traction control" and "Stability control", followed shortly by "gearbox malfunction" (with no apparent loss of any of the functions), then the radio and SID went out (as well as turn singal sounds). After...

Ive read many forums about the difficulty with the Saab fiber optic cabling and I swear it's turning out to be a nightmare...or is it? Problem is I have 2 door speakers that used to work but were popping and cracking and if I turned the volume/bass up too far the sound was unbearable. Now...
