The dealer is correct there isn't any code for the 9-5 radio. Instead, it is 'married' to the DICE unit, with Tech-II. The radio will only work with the DICE unit its married to, unless its divorced from the original DICE and then married to another. Security code message is appearing because the radio isn't married to the DICE unit, I'd guess that when the new battery was fitted its messed something up, although I've never had a problem when fitting new batteries. Hope this helps, Rich In article <b1c1lk$119v2l$1nopsam75092.news.dfncis.de>, Big Al <alan.saussenopsamorld.com> writes >I own a 1998 model UK Saab 9-5 2.3 Turbo saloon. > >It has one of the Saab radio/cassette systems with a single slot CD player. >It's never asked for a radio security code before. > >I had some problems with the battery recently and it had to be replaced. > >Now when I try to switch on the radio/cassette I'm asked to enter a security >code.
