It would be nice to know what the hose looked like. Maybe it is a heater hose. https://www.eeuroparts.com/Parts/33434/Heater-Hose-Inlet-12798534/

Pretty safe to bet it is not the lower radiator hose.

Tell me what kind of motor oil r you using.regular or synthetic.
SOURCE: Describe your 2002 Astro van temperature gauge
Check coolant level, and possibly replace thermostat. When a thermostat gets stuck in the closed position, coolant does not circulate thru motor. Gauge stays midrange when driving, because motor is being cooled by air and or the fan. If car seems to operate completely normal, then the gauge is faulty.

Water on any electrical part of the engine can cause problems. Even high humidity. The only parts you can easily check and dry out is the plug wires where they connect to the coils and any connections you can find where components are plugged into wiring a harness.
SOURCE: Check engine light Saab 05 93 Linear
Take the car to a local auto parts place and they should be able to scan the computer and give you the code that triggered your check engine light. Most places will run this scan for free. Even if your Saab appears to be running fine it is prudent to have this checked to avoid a sudden break down. I hope this helps. Good luck.
