The battery was weak -- that much has been concluded. It's 1.5 year-old SAAB mfr. battery and when the service station hooked it up to a meter, nothing registered. (I gought the car in October last year and it had been replaced a bit before then). They then charged it and it barely took (that's my understanding of the technicians lenghty portrayal of cranking power, etc.). So the battery was bad to begin with evidently. I stored the car all winter (about 5 months) with the battery disconnected, and it fired up fine in the spring. It's been fine up to this incident and clearly gave up its ghost during the four-week period the car wasn't driven.
I didn't test the central lock...will do. The remote chip you refer to...where can I find that?
Many thanks!
