2008 Aero TTiD I'm fitting an extra amp in the boot to run a pair of 6x9s in the parcel shelf. Is there any way to power it from the rear fuse box instead of running a cable directly from the battery? the amp is 12v/30amp, I was thinking of using a fuse tap if possible but don't know if there...

Hi All, Well, as per my other 2 threads, the water feed to the turbo had corroded badly at the banjo connection which caused a water leak. The real issue was the pipe itself and how we were going to fix it. Initially bought a hose fit banjo end off eBay with the hope of cutting the pipe down...

Hi all, Im looking to fit aftermarket reversing sensors on my 56 plate 93 saloon sport, i have exposed the reversing light cluster and see that the only coloured wires going into the light cluster are Black. I have traced the wiring back down from the boot lid to the circuit board/Fuse box, but...

Just had my parents 9-3SS come back from the window tinter there and now there is no electrical feed to one of the back doors, 'Theft Protection Failure' has come up on the SID, the door will not lock and the window will not operate. There must be a loose connector somewhere, considering he had...

Hi all, I am mid way through a whole refit of my audio system, I have wired my 2 channel amp in the boot which is all connected; however I need to find a wire from the left hand side fuse box area which has a live on ignition to auto power on the amp. Currently the live/remote is bridged...

Having read about the problems of powering Led day running lights off the lighting circuits, I thought I'd power them direct from the battery (via an in line fuse).But I need a switching supply that is only live when the ignition is on. Ideally this need to be under the bonnet for ease of...

Hello Saabscene, Has anyone fitted the Abbott clutch pipe kit to their 9000? It replaces the original flexi and metal clutch pipes with a braided hose straight from master to slave. http://www.abbottracing.net/product.php?id_product=370 I'm interested to know if the pedal feel has been...

I am in the process of wiring in electric seats and it talks about taking a live feed from 77 & 78 and number 10 from the junction box in the passenger door pillar. The problem is that I can't work out how to wire into this. I can take the junction box out (the green one) but there seem to be...

1997 SAAB 9000 turbo Well I broke one of the plastic connections at the top of the fuel pump. Does anyone have any tricks to replacing one of these little babies. The fuel line seems to be nylon and very tight. I ordered the replacement plastic piece but having trouble removing the old one from...

Hi, hope you can help, I'm have a W reg (2000) 93 and need to locate a live (not switched) feed behind the dash. Anyone know of a easy pick up point, or do I need to trace it over to the fuse box?. Thanks

I was planning to check my turbo oil feed pipe for sludge, but am concerned I may not be able to get it back on at the correct torque. As far as I can see its turbo end is partly obscured by the exhaust manifold connection. Is it reachable with say a socket and a universal joint from a 1/4"...

Today I noticed I was having difficulty engaging gears on my 1987 c900 Convertible. When I got home I noticed there was fluid dripping from under the car. On lifting the bonnet I found that it was the radiator that was covered in brake/clutch fluid. I got SWMBO to operate the clutch and saw a...

Is there a definitive answer as to how the chain gets oiled, i'm not sure the supposed pipe from the pcv would provide much oil to the chain unless someone knows better. Cheers Paul also posted on saab central

Given the weakness of the CSE single reversing light, the availability of high output LEDs and the onset of darkness in the northern hemisphere, I bought a LED and stuck it in the reversing light. It was nice and bright. I turned off the ignition and was amazed to see the LED glowing quietly...

As above, mines got a hole in it. I've got a temporary fix on it at the moment but need a new one. It's the pipe that goes from the top of the turbo round and onto just above the oil filter housing. Saab want stupid money for one so I thought I'd try on here. Cheers Brian

While removing the engine from my 1998 9-5 I realised I could not seperate the fuel line from the injection rail. Does any one know how? It seems to be a stiff plastic that goes into a metal cup followed by a wiered shaped rubber gromit that has three points and finally the metal rail feeds from...
