Saab 9 5 wagon 2002 radio code had to change battery is the code the same again as in owners manual?

You may have to have it reset with a Tech 2.

Some older Saabs don't actually have a radio code, but displays that message when the battery has been disconnected.

if you did have a radio code, you or the Prior Owner may have written it in the owner's audio manual.

There also may be one stamped on the side of the radio. You'd need to pull it to see.

I'm leaning towards Tech 2 reset due to the age of your vehicle.

I need standard "P" series OBD2 codes to help, please read with a scan tool or code reader.

Scan Tool

Disconnect the Battery - first check to see
if you will need radio or other codes

Depending on repair -- you should just be able to drive it

You can only get your radio code from the dealership. The code is retrieved by removing the radio and finding the serial number for your particular radio. You can either remove it yourself or pay to have the dealership do it. One other thing you might try is looking around in your glove box or in the owner's manual. There might be a sticker with the code printed on it hidden in the glove box or if you're not the original owner of the car, the previous owner may have written it down in the owner's manual.

Good Luck!

You have to have the code to unlock it, obviously. If you have never changed the code, it may be 0000. Otherwise, you will have to take it to a dealer to have it unlocked.
