Retrieving Diagnostic Trouble Codes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Saab 9-3 and 2000 Saab 9-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. During ACC control module calibration any stored and/or detected DTCs will be displayed in place of temperature. A number from 0-23 will be displayed for approximately 3 seconds each. Fan speed bars are used to indicate the number of DTCs stored. A maximum of 6 DTCs can be stored at any time. See ACC CONTROL MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  table.
  2. Connect Saab Tech 2 or OBD-II compliant scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located under instrument panel, below steering column. Turn ignition on. Following scan tool manufacturer's instructions, read and note DTCs. See ACC CONTROL MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  and DICE CONTROL MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  tables.
  3. Because a functional problem in one system can be caused from a problem in another system it is important to read DTCs from all vehicle systems. Compare DTCs with customer complaint. DTC that most closely corresponds with customer complaint is probably caused by primary malfunction.
