From the factory the code was on a card in the owners manual. Often times it is also written on the radio (have to remove it from the dash.) If all else fails take down your VIN number and call a dealer, they can look it up for you.
could be the anti-theft device in the radio. it requires you to put the 4 digit code in to "unlock" the radio for use. This number should have been given to you by the seller -otherwise can be obtained by a previous SAAB dealer. This can happen when the battery is disconnected for a period of time
Radio on the Saab need a code of 4 numbers to put back on the radio. The moment you take out the cables of battery the radio is out. Is a security things on the Saab. When you bought the car should have a card and keep the card in the safe place don't loose. That how you put the radio on.
Your radio should say CODE when you tune it on. Type the 4 digit code in using your Radio Preset buttons 1 thru 6. If you type in the wrong code more the 3 times the radio will lock you out for a lengthy amount of time...
I have a Saab 900 -97 with a similar problem. I just solved it yesterday on my car. Hold the Band button in for like 10-15 sec when you see "Code In", It clears the error log in the radio. If it doen´t work, enter a wrong code so the code hangs on the display and then press the band button to clear the error log. It worked on my car, good luck!
whenever the battery is removed (or car experiences any loss of power) you must type in security code for radio (this is the case with BMWs and Volvos as well). Go to any saab dealership and they can remove the radio and get your radio's 4 digit code, they all have one. Yes, I have done this before ` they didn't charge me and I was in and out in ten minutes.
