Check fuse #15 if you have not done so & check in the trunk for a manual over ride under the tool kit. The 90-92 models had one, not sure if your model does. I don't have a lot of info on the 94 A 9000-- Maybe a Saab expert will chime in with more advise.

1

Close any open doors, and lock them all from the driver's door. You should hear the other doors locking when you turn the key in the driver's door. Check the other doors to make sure the lock indicators are in the "Locked" position.

2

Wait at least 15 seconds. Then, unlock the driver's door with the key. This should disable the alarm.

3 Take your car to the Saab dealership if the alarm engages even with the car unlocked. That likely means there is a contact inside the lock on the driver door that is faulty.

Maybe the anti lock brake ecu is bad or the sensors need to be replaced on the appropriate wheel as indicated by fault codes for the ABS system.

Fault codes were not provided on the original 1989 model of the Saab 9000, but the 1990 to 1991 model ecu can be installed and fault codes read from the AntiLock warning lIght flashing codes.

Check wiring to ensure there are no opens to the module from the ABS Wheel Speed Sensors.

Maybe check that the wheel speed sensor is picking up a sinusoidal wave of AC electricity when the wheel is spun as seen on an oscilloscope function of a multimeter. This would isolate the problem to wiring or the ECU being at fault.

Exit the vehicle and close but do not lock the doors.Now open the rear door,reach over the driver's seat and push the locking tab down.Close the passenger door and you should be good to go.

Have you tried to jiggle the steering wheel when trying? Sometimes the pin will not line up with the holes and will cause this.

check the relay maybe faulty and overheating

in the boot behid the tool tray on the right side ther is a cable with a yellow platic thing hanging pull this and your flap will unlock

the locking solenoid could be sticking up or down due to the cold or could be going bad. if possible take off the door panel a watch the solenoid as you have someone operate the key and with the remote.
