Wiring for anti-theft alarm siren can short to ground
|
Saab 900 M95 up to and including VIN S2003492 that are pre-wired for an anti-theft alarm. Cars with a factory-fitted anti-theft alarm are not concerned.
The wiring terminal for the siren in the left-hand wheel housing is not insulated on certain cars. This could result in a short circuit to ground if the terminal makes contact with the front wing.
1-pin connector 85 21 544.
First check box "B4" on the modification identity plate. If this box is not marked, remedial action should be taken on the car as follows:
|
1.
|
Remove the negative battery terminal.
|
|
2.
|
Remove the left-hand direction indicator lamp.
|
|
3.
|
Withdraw the red lead connected to the anti-theft alarm siren using a length of steel wire bent to shape.
|
Important
|
|
Withdraw the lead carefully, making sure that the terminal and/or the rubber seal do not come loose.
|
|
|
|
|
4.
|
Fit connector 85 21 544 to the red lead's terminal. Pull the rubber seal over it.
|
|
5.
|
Refit the side direction indicator lamp and reconnect the negative battery terminal.
|
|
Marking the modification identity plate
|
When remedial action has been taken on the car, box "B4" on the modification identity plate should be marked with a 7 if the car was remedied by the importer and with an 8 if remedied by a dealer.
