saab 93 key can be very stressful to lose or have your car keys stolen. It's cheap and easy to replace a car key if you own an extra key.

To add an additional key, you will need to remove the electronics from your old key and get it programmed to your vehicle via a SAAB tech 2 device. You'll pay a fee if you delay this process.

Lost or Stolen keys

It's as easy as ever to copy the keys to your vehicle as it was 20 years ago. Modern keys come with an electronic chip. The chips offer a great deal of protection against theft and key copying. However, this doesn't mean that you will never lose your key.

If you do lose your keys, don't panic! The first thing to examine the areas where you normally put your keys. You may find them in your pockets of your jacket, pants or even on the ground near your front door. If you're still unable to locate your keys, you should call a locksmith to come out to your vehicle and assist you in finding keys.

If all of your keys are missing the dealer can replace your car's computer (SAAB CIM or SAAB Twice) in order to create your a new key. This can be costly and take several days. We can reprogram the EEPROM on your computer to save money.

The ignition key on the 03-11 SAAB isn't the most durable. The buttons could fall out and become stuck. It is recommended to make a duplicate of your ignition key if only you have one. This will save you from any inconveniences.

Lockouts

Saab owners are advised to always carry a spare key, since it's much easier to replace a stolen or lost one. If you lose just one key, it is a different matter. It's expensive to get the second key, and it will require the dealer to install and program the TWICE module (Column Integration Module on older vehicles) and a brand new OEM key (not purchased from Amazon or eBay).

If you're having issues with your remote control keys not locking or unlocking your car, you need to look for a variety of possible causes. The most common is the battery of the coin that is dead in the key fob. However, it can also be caused by damaged buttons and water damage, signal interference, and issues with the receiver module.

If the issue continues to persist after having tried all of these options, you can try reprogramming your ignition 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 the key fob to do this. This can be accomplished by removing your emergency keys from the fob. You can then employ a flathead to lift the fob's casing and expose the battery. Do not spill liquids or drop them into the fob as it could damage the electronic components.

Broken Keys

The loss of your car keys or lost is a frustrating experience especially if you don't have an extra. You can minimize the inconvenience by having replacement keys made in Bishopthorpe by a professional locksmith. If you're in the middle of nowhere or just a few miles away we can provide you with a fresh set of electronic chip keys in a short time.

Every Saab since 1995 has been required to have an immobilizer system in the vehicle. This makes it virtually impossible to steal your car without a key. A special transponder must be included in the key to allow the car to start and 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 dealers using a tool known as Tech-2 or similar software.

If your key has been damaged in your ignition lock, it is crucial that you don't try to extract the key by yourself, as it could damage the lock and cause further problems. In the event that you try to force a damaged key out is usually a result in the destruction of the key's metal blade or locking mechanism itself. This can be more expensive than hiring a locksmith to replace the key.

Replacement

Saab owners who purchased their Saab from 1994 onwards are advised to have two functioning keys for their car. Replacing only one key is costly and complex. The dealer will have to replace both the CIM (Column Integration module) or TWICE, based on the model. They will also need to program the key to work with the new module. Claimed-new keys from aftermarket sellers are often not properly initialized and fail to properly program when you require them.

It is not unusual to find the battery inside the key fob to wear out after a couple of years of usage, particularly when it is used frequently for locking and unlocking the car. Fortunately that replacing the battery in the majority of SAAB 9-3 key fob models is simple and does not require any special tools.


A mobile SAAB Locksmith can provide this service for 75% less than dealers would charge. Locksmiths do not have to replace the car's computer. They can reprogram the EEPROM to recognize the new keys. This saves a lot of money since a brand new car computer could be expensive. This is why it is logical to contact a mobile SAAB locksmith anytime you require a replacement key fob for your car.
