2006 Saab 9-7X - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Sounds like you have a short circuit somewhere, and now possibly a flat battery. Too many possible causes of short circuit. I assume you have checked fuses and relays.

A manual is the sure solution but you could try disconnecting battery for 10 minutes.

Honda questions don't belong in the Saab area.

Look at the 1-2 shift solenoid, the valve body itself, the transmission control module and the wiring that connects them together. The problem will be found there.

It is probabley worn rings so the best thing to do is at next oil change get a can of V-8 formula engine restore it takes the place of about half a quart of oil I think to be exact I think the restore for a V-8 is a 15 ounce can.Try that at oil changes.

Usually a bad bulb, or dirty/loose plug in connection...Hope this helps.

Could be a loose connection at the light,open hood and check connectors.

Easiest way is to stick your hand in front of the battery and take the dust cover off, twist the bulb and done. I'm lucky, have smaller hands! lol, If you can't get to it, remove the battery for easy access. The passenger side requires removal of the aircleaner box.

i you think you are being scammed then you probably are what is the issue ?

Note: Sometimes if you pull the clip UP too far it catches on the bottom of the knob in back and the headlight won't come out. Just wiggle, or push the clip down like 1/32 of an inch or so and it will let go of the headlight assembly.

Check for broken or disconnected vacuum lines near where you have been working.

possible that you have : brakes issues sensor issues electrical connection issues... the light comes on due to a fault code. that needs to be retrieved and then you can diagnose from there.

SERACH BY yOUTUBE IF EXIST SOME CASE FOR FIX

it is your blower motor if your fuse is ok but I'm here to tell it is a s.o.b.to replace and good luck...

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

The code P0135 is a fault code for the o2 sensor before the catalytic converter.Replace the o2 sensor and then reset the computer and it should be fine afterwards.The check engine light should stay off then.

Hi
Let me explain the way a modern Catalytic Converter is constructed so you will understand the rattle. The Inside of the modern Catalytic Converter looks just like a Honey Bees honeycomb, it is made out of a very heat resistant ceramic core called the "Brick" the brick is coated with rare elements that react with the exhaust and "clean" it up, this design is very reliable and seldom clogs up or fails, not so with the old Ceramic bead type converters. But here is why the rattle, sometimes the glass like ceramic brick I mentioned cracks into pieces, this causes a terrible rattle inside the Catalytic Converter shell and if it goes on long enough broken brick pieces will plug the exhaust pipe and the engine will either stop running or have a severe loss of power (this is rare), so the dealer is right on the source of the rattle, and that being the Converter. I hope this has helped you to understand the reason behind the rattle.
My experience? 35 years as a vocational school and dealer trained automotive technican with a masters certification from ASE (automotive service excellence) in all phases of auto repair.

New starter.

It's a belt:
Location SAAB 9-7x timing belt is located under timing belt cover. This cover is at the front of the engine and is behind the accessory drive belts that drive the power steering pump, alternator and a/c compressor.

For the L6-256ci 4.2L F/I Vin S the part number should be 6K905AP
For the V8-325ci 5.3L F/I Vin M the part number should be 4K365AP
