Lost or Stolen keys

It's as easy as ever to copy the key to your vehicle, just as it was 20 years ago. The only difference is that modern keys come with an electronic chip in the keys. These chips offer a lot of protection from theft and key copying. However, this doesn't mean that you'll never lose your key.

If you do lose your keys, don't panic! Look around in the places you normally keep your keys.

The ignition key on the 03-11 SAAB is not the most durable. The buttons can fall out and become stuck. If you're down to one ignition key that works you must make a duplicate as soon as you can to avoid any difficulties.

Lockouts

Saab owners are advised to have a spare key on hand, because it's simpler to replace a lost or stolen one. If you lose only one key, that's a different issue as it's quite expensive to add one and requires a dealer to install and program a brand new TWICE module (Column Integration Module on earlier vehicles) and a brand new key that is OEM (not from Amazon or eBay).

If you're experiencing problems with your remote control keys not locking or unlocking your car, you need to check for several possible causes. Most likely is the battery for the coin on the key fob. However, it could also be caused by worn buttons, water damage, signal interference or problems with the receiver module.

You'll need to remove the case of the key fob in order to do this. This can be done by removing the emergency key from the fob. Then, you can use a flathead to remove the fob's case to expose the battery. Do not spill liquids or drop them into the fob as it could harm the electronic components.

Since 1995 the year 1995, every Saab is required to have an immobilizer for the vehicle. This makes it nearly impossible to steal a car without a particular key. A special transponder must be incorporated into the keys to start the car and unlock doors.

The dealer will need to replace the CIM (Column Integration Module) or TWICE (Theft Warning Integrated Central Electronics) depending on the model, and the key itself; plus it will have to be programmed to work with the new module. Keys that are claimed new from aftermarket sellers are typically not properly programmed and may not be programmed correctly when you require them.

It is not uncommon that the battery wears out on a keyfob following some time of use, especially if the fob is frequently used to lock and unlock cars. The replacement of the battery on many SAAB 9-3 models is simple and doesn't require any special tools.
