I think the 3 flashes only have relevance if your model has the Jetronic fuel injection computer and a separate DI/APC box. In 1993, I believe SAAB switched to the Trionic system. The flash codes on the Trionic system are listed at the Townsend site.
Since the major failure mode on the DI cassette is the spark plug coils incinerate themselves, I think you would not get the 3 flashes as a warning. When my DI cassette failed, it just stopped working, and that was it.
I think you would get flash code if the plug to the cassette was disconnected or if the spark plug ionization detection circuit wasn't working. A bad plug could cause that.
