  1. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    Is it a direct swap of a SID and Radio/CD player on a 1995 900SE from a 1999 9-3 SE? The only difference appears to be that the 95 has a analog clock on the SID where 99 has digital. And radio/cassette player on 95 would be replaced by a radio/CD player. All OEM. Thanks

    After many months of planning, testing, installing, and tweaking, my install is just about done (for now). Hopefully this can serve as a reference for anyone to add a similar amp/DSP/speakers etc. in the future. The DIY Mobile Audio forum was also a big help as I planned this out and worked on...
  3. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    My mechanic identified that my radio system has a short/draw that was draining my battery on my 9-3 2.0T (year 2006). Once they disconnected the fuse feeding the radio I am not having these issues with my battery dying but now do not have a working radio or status screen at top of the console...

    I was having an issue where my battery was going dead due to a draw. My mechanic identified the source as a short somewhere in the radio. They had to disconnect the fuse that was feeding my radio to stop the draw and eliminate the issue with the battery dying. However, now I don't have a...

    Did lots of minor fixing today. SID and HVAC had dead pixels so I sourced good used ones, replaced all of speakers today (removed the center speaker per lots of searching threads) in my H/K AS3 system. The previous owner was only using the dash speakers as the rear 6x9s were blown the bits. (03...

    With the engine on I can change the station, using the seek buttons on the icm and on the wheel. But I can't change the volume unless I turn the key to the off position. Any help would be appreciated it's driving me crazy!

    Hi everyone, I purchased my Saab about 2 months ago, my instrument cluster dials sometimes will not start up, so rev counter goes dead, speedometer goes dead, rarely happens with the fuel gauge and temperature guage. Sometimes pressing the night panel butting brings them back to normal and...
  13. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    I recently replaced the belt in my 9-3's cassette mechanism. There's no manual on how to do this, so there was a bit of guesswork involved. In the process, I nudged the rotary encoder that reports the mechanism's location just a tad. Realignment with the timing marks on the mechanism worked for...

    Hello, newbie here. I was driving and listening to music with an FM transmitter. I pressed the skip button on the transmitter thinking nothing of it, and then static. I looked down and I saw smoke rising and no power to the transmitter. I then checked it with the lighter in the arm rest and it...

    Hi all, I have three of the Clarion CD/EQ units for the c900/9000. All three have the same basic fault. The CD is accepted, but doesn't actually spin up and play. The EQ portion of the units function just fine. Does anyone know of a potential fix for this unit as it seems to be a common...
