Hi Marie,
As I suspected, a vacuum leak...I'm good at armchair diagnosis, probably because I've made all the mistakes already :)
Is your car an automatic? That cable is probably the 'kickdown' cable for the automatic transmission, when you tromp down on the gas enough and are in the right gear, the 'kickdown' cable will cause the auto trans to downshift. If it's loose, it can be adjusted to take up the slack.
To clear your check engine light, try disconnecting the battery for 30 mins or so and reconnect. If it persists, you *may* have to find a dealer or independent saab mechanic with an ISAT tester to diagnose the trouble, or to clear the trouble codes.
One thing you haven't commented on, is whether this stereo install was done by pros or by 'bros'...You can't just stomp a stereo in, find any old wired or hook up straight to the battery like on a '76 Nova.
