Keys stolen or lost

It's as easy as ever to copy the key into your vehicle just like it was 20 years ago. The only difference is that modern keys have an electronic chip in them.

Lockouts

Saab owners should have a spare key as it's much simpler to replace keys lost or stolen. If you lose only one key, it's an entirely different story. It's expensive to add an additional key, and it requires the dealer installing and programming the TWICE module (Column Integration Module on older cars) and an OEM key that is brand new (not purchased from Amazon or eBay).

If your remote control keys are not locking or unlocking the vehicle, there are a number of possible reasons. The most common is an empty battery on the key fob, but it can be caused by worn buttons, water damage, signal interference or problems with the receiver module.

If you've looked them up and your problem persists, you can try to solve it yourself by reprogramming the key. This is done by changing (in reverse Hex) the number count to zero in the ECU. You'll need to open the case of your key fob in order to do this. This can be accomplished by removing your emergency keys from the fob. You can then employ a flathead for removing the fob's casing and expose the battery. Don't pour or drop liquids into the fob as it could damage the electronic components.

Every Saab since 1995 has been required to have an immobilizer within the vehicle. This makes it almost impossible to take your car away without a specific key. A transponder is required to be included in the key to start the car as well as unlock doors. The key also needs a transmitter/transponder chip that needs to be matched with the car's computer module in order to work. This can only be done by an authorized dealer using a tool called Tech-2 or a similar program.

It is not recommended to remove the broken key from the lock or ignition. This could cause damage to the lock, and cause other problems. The attempt to force a broken key out will usually result in the destruction of the key's metal blade or lock mechanism itself. This could be more costly than hiring a locksmith replace the key.

Replacement

Owners of Saab automobiles manufactured between 1994 and beyond are advised to keep at least two working keys for their vehicle. Replacing just one key can be costly and complex. The dealer will have to replace both the CIM (Column Integration module) or TWICE, depending on the model. They will also need to program the key in order to work with the new module. Keys that are claimed-new from sellers on the aftermarket are typically not properly programmed and may fail to program correctly when you require them.
