112 Saab 9-5 Audio System

Error codes

The audio system has a built-in diagnostics
function. If a fault is detected, a error code
is generated to help workshop technicians
to diagnose the fault. Below are the codes
for some faults that you might be able to rec-
tify yourself.

Security lock

The audio system is equipped with an elec-
tronic security lock. The special code is
unique to the car in which the audio system
is fitted.
Each time the audio system is switched on,
a check is made to ensure that the code is
correct. If not, the following will appear on
the display: Locked
If the audio system is to be transferred to
another car (Saab 9-5), a Saab dealer must
be contacted to provide the right code for
the audio system.
