2004 SAAB 9-3 Linear
I was doing work to the car. I had it on jackstands for 3 days and the battery was removed (car was lockeD).
I basically changed the inner and outer tie rod anyway thats not the problem.
I then placed the battery back and alarm sounded. I clicked the unlock button and it stopped and unlocked the door.
Now I go in the car it wont turn the key nothing displayed.
I go back out and remove the battery terminals and reput them. I get back in the car and it says "key not accepted".
I tried doing the following as I read in the forums.
I put the key fob in the ignition and click the unlock button 4-5 times nothing happens. I cant turn it off the unlock position.
I get out of the car and try it and nothing happens.
I tried pressing any button on the remote and the only one that does anything is the panic button. But when it beeps and alarm goes off because I clicked the panic button I can press any other button on the remote and it will stop.
One thing I noticed.
The steering wheel is not locked and i cant turn the remote in the ignition at all.
Someone help!.
I took the battery for testing and they said its fine.
