hulse Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Does anyone know much about saabs. mainly the alarms i can buy a mint one for very very cheap but the alarm has gone and apparently it is built into the ECU. its a 2.3 turbo aero deck. are they hard to fix as no one can fix it thanks John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sevenman Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Assuming it's a 9000 Aero you are talking about (the 9-5 might be different), then it uses Saab's VSS (Vehicle Security System). The alarm isn't really built into the ECU, but the two have to be able to talk for the vehicle to run. You can swap ECU/VSS, but then you need a Saab garage/Specialist with the Tech2 interface to tell them to get along and let your car start. More information can probably be found with a search at http://www.saabscene.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
