Hey y'all dealing with a headlight issue and wanted to get some guidance - I recently acquired a 2006 Saab 9-5 Wagon - it was a family members who picked it up a few years ago - driven very rarely. Re: headlights - the passenger side headlight was super dim and the driver's side was flickering...

I have just replaced the the low beam headlight bulbs in my 2006 9-3 vert. The bulbs fit into the holes properly, and the clips seat in the notches and hold the bulbs securely. The problem happens when I try to reseat the ballasts. I can press them into place, with the four "legs" seating...

I'm really hoping you Saab experts can help me out. I have a new to me 2004 9-5 Arc. The headlights are driving me crazy! I have found very little information on my issue. Foremost I do not have Xenon high beams and am trying to diagnose. Secondly I also do not have flash to pass (H7...

Well I'm stumped. :confused: My passenger headlight has stopped working, and my driver side headlight only turns on about 50% of the times I start the car. I spent all weekend troubleshooting the problem, which meant installing a new ballast/ignitor and switching bulbs/ballast/ignitor between...

I looked everywhere but did not find a 'manual' how to replace the xenon ballast on a 2005 9-3. Looks you need to take out the complete headlamp as the box sits under the headlight ? Anyone having a full instruction how to do that ? It is the passenger side .

Took the 2006 Saab 9-3 in for a low beam out (xenon). This is the third one since buying the car new (second on this right side). Again, local mechanic said a new ballast was needed. The current one in was replaced 26 months ago by the dealer under warranty. After reading threads on this topic...
