How to Replace a SAAB Key Fob

Dealers could charge you several hundred dollars for the key fob that's not functioning properly. However, you can fix it yourself for less.

You'll need an flathead screwdriver to open the case and access the electronics. You should also have a multimeter on hand to test the battery.

Battery

Most key fobs are activated whenever you press a button, for example, to unlock or lock the vehicle (or to start it in the case of keyless ignition). This is because they use a battery inside that sends an electronic signal to the vehicle to signal that you're close enough to trigger the starter button. If the fob starts to act in an inconsistent manner, it's most likely that the battery is damaged and needs to be replaced.

It's a simple process, but be careful to ensure that you don't damage the electronics inside the fob. If you aren't sure what size battery your fob requires you can look for a label or other mark on the back of the key fob that specifies what it needs. You can also utilize a multimeter to check the old battery and see if it is still working.

Once you've identified the correct battery for your key fob, you can remove it and put in the new one. Then, you can snap the two pieces of the fob back together, and you'll be ready to go.
