  1. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    I’m afraid this is a tricky one as, although I am quite used to using a mustimeter for simple continuity tests, I’m no electrical engineer. The driver’s side (left) dipped beam headlight is not working. This seems quite a common fault and I have looked at a number of threads here dealing with...
  2. Classic Saab 9-3/GM900 (1994 - 2002)/Conv ( -2003)
    Hello all, this is my first thread. I have a 1999 93 with a SID 1. the clock setting is 24 hours but the read out only goes to 2:35 then starts again from 0:00. The minutes read out to 99, which is a little unusual as there are only 60 minutes in an hour here in Australia. Can anyone help...
  3. Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    OK, so, here's the thing. 6.5 inch Kenwood SVT-M700 2DIN unit dies just like that, doesn't power up. Check the dash fuse, it's OK. Pull the unit out and test with multimeter, find this: Full-time (BU) power: 13.2 Illumination power: 13.2 Park power: 0.0 I have an intermittent failure of the...

    Hi all, After several months of having no audio in my vehicle I am going to attempt to install an aftermarket stereo but need a little advice. This may take a long time but here is the story so far: I jump started my beloved vehicle and the issues started, radio does not switch on and no...
  5. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    My 97 Saab 9000 (155,000 miles) lost power to wipers, turn signals, flashers, blower but not heater. Still retained headlights. This happened at nite on a trip, at gas station stop. The odd thing is it is also accompanied by a transmission issue. It whines and grinds terribly when in Park and...
  6. Classic Saab 9-5 (1997 - 2009)
    Does anyone know how these headlight bulbs work? Normally, there are 3 electrodes on a headlight bulb: Earth (negative) and 2 No. positive, one for beam and one for dipped. H7 only have two: negative and positive. My guess without checking it out, is that they switch over negative to positive...
  7. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    Hi, after having the groups diagnosis of cracked piston rings or worse confirmed at WMSS, I have started to look for a replacement engine to whack into my 1993 Aero, so I can take the head off the damaged engine to have a look at the bores and see whether that one is beyond repair or not. Now...
