This will ensure that the new key is properly connected to your CIM that can be a major difference when replacing the sole key on your Saab 9-3.

The metal part of the classic Saab keys is easy to duplicate and doesn't pose a serious threat to theft of vehicles. The electronic component of the key-fob has an electronic chip that detects the car when the key is inserted in the ignition switch.

Saab's anti-theft system has relied upon this technology for more than a decade. It's not as secure as an actual lock on the door but it makes the process of stealing your vehicle harder. Every Saab owner must keep a spare Saab key in their car.

The majority of new Saabs come with two keys, but they can be added by a dealer using a special handheld device referred to as a Tech-2.

The only exception is NG 9-3 cars, which are equipped with more modern and advanced features that require a separate key-fob and utilize a different process.

The dealer will replace the CIM or TWICE module in those cars if the keys are lost, and they'll cost you top dollar for the process. We can reprogram your computer's EEPROM to accept new keys without replacing expensive modules.
