Sandy Automotive in OKC made 2 replacement keys for my Saab 2011 9-3 Convertible. They were fast, reasonably priced, and super nice. Give them a call if you need a replacement key! The housing on my original key crumbled (??) and no one else in OKC could create a new key for me until I found...

Hi I have a 2005 9-3 Arc convertible and I need a second key made since I just have one and it's starting to come apart. I live in central NJ and would like to know if anyone has done this in the past and if I should be looking for someone that deals specifically with Saab vehicles. I did find...

I spent some time looking at various discussions about keyfob issues but I feel my situation is a bit unique in that, amongst some other things, the actual key inside the keyfob doesn't unlock the door. If this is not unusual and covered in another thread, please feel free to point me in the...

Just got the car, 03 9-3 Vector. Got my tech 2 two days ago and I see a number of issues. Most I think are tech 2 related and one oil leak question. 1. Here are the issues I see on my SID. -- Traction Control - contact SAAB (my fix action so far -- none tried). -- Air bag - contact SAAB (my fix...

Hi Folks, Not sure which forum in which to put this, however it does concern my '04 9-3 CV Aero. Purchased car with one FOB. Purchased a new replacement. Took out the new Tech2 (purchased off AliExpress; Fast Shipping!) and walked through the programs. Got the security access with GlobalTIS...

New member, occasional reader of posts. I need help with my central locking system. I just bought my third 9-5. This one is a 2007. The locking system is not working correctly. The previous owner bought one new ignition key and central locking unit after swimming in the ocean with the old...

Car will not start. Key FOB is stuck in ON OFF START ... I can not remove the key and the car will not start. This Vehicle is a 2004 9-3 Linear MANUAL 5 Speed

Forgive my novel, maybe more is better? Possibly significant background: I have a 2006 97x that had an aftermarket nav/radio put in when I bought it used in 2009. The place that installed it was recommended by the dealer, but turned out to be an shoddy operation that was empty and closed down...

No buttons on either fob work. security light flashing. I am outside the car... How do I get in??? Car blocking driveway- Need HELP and FAST!.. Anybody?

I have an '04 9-3 where just recently my remote entry has stopped working. The fob still starts the car and all systems including the locks work when the door switches are used. The batteries in both my fobs are good. Any suggestions on what could be the issue?

The key fob came open a while back and we glued it back together. It worked fine. IT came apart again and we put it back together and when I tried to put the key in the ignition it only went half way. At this point it still worked to lock and unlock the car. We have a spare non-remote key that...

Just at the beginning of the summer I acquired a pretty sweet 00 9-3 Vert, and have since fallen in love with the thing. Just last week though my girlfriend sent the key and remote through the wash :cry:. At first try after this event and after a very thorough attempt at drying it out, it...

Hi, Picked up 9-5 griffin yesterday, mate came over to look at it he has a 9-5 griffin as well both 1999 but mine is S reg and his T reg. I only got 1 key ,no remote. So my key is with chip inside only no buttons. His key has remote built in with 3 buttons. So I would ask when was the swap over...

I've had my 9-5 for 3 years now, but ever since I purchased the vehicle the central locking hasn't worked. When the car was with the previous owner they did work, and I personally witnessed it. Prior to me owning the car, I was in the car when it suffered massive engine failure. (Turbo...

I have a 2000 95 linear wagon. I bought it used and it came with one key, no FOB remote. Yesterday it wouldn't start, and gave the -Key not recognized- message. I assumed the key had a battery that needed replacing. When I came to the forum to figure out how to open the key without destroying...

:x I did not drive my 2000 9-3 SE for a week. I had it locked and alarm activated when I parked it. The dash LED was flashing once every 3 seconds correctly as if the alarm is set. I went out to fire it up and tried to unlock it with my Fob, the fob would not work. So I used the key to...
