I have a 1997 Saab 900 Turbo that won't start. I started it up the other morning and drove to the store and it wouldn't start from there. It sounded like it was trying to turn over and then nothing.....kind of like maybe a dead battery but I had it checked and the battery is good. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure how he got these codes but nothing i have ever seen, the codes should be like po301 or p1152 codes like that, heres a quick test, remove the upper cover that contains the coils and module, this is the most common problem, you will remove it and leave it connected to the connector and have someone spin the engine and see if theres spark, if theres no spark then that may be the problem, this is an expensive part,here are a few pictures of it, good day.
Since it does eventually start and run, hard starting is usually a fuel delivery problem (pressure regulator, fuel filter, fuel pump, kinked fuel line). First check the fuel pressure after turning the key on but not starting the car.
Sounds like you will need to have the codes read at SAAB dealer to confirm no fautly sensors have caused this to happen. There may still be a bad component that is triggering lamp. MMP
