    2006 9-3 Aero Sportcombi TRUNK BOOT Amplifier Failure

    Hello, Saabworld.

    I recently spilled an unusually large amount of water in my trunk and fried the amp on the RH side below the taillight. This produced the oft experienced symptom of an unresponsive Infotainment system. I have remedied it with an optical bypass, but would like to replace the amp OEM or at least fix it in such a way that it returns to standard operation.

    I've looked around online and can't seem to find any OEM amp for less than $500 USD and I'm not dropping that for something so superfluous.

    Unless someone can direct me to a cheap OEM amp, I intend to find a comparable amp and use it instead. In order to accomplish this, I'll use an optical splitter; one output will close the loop, the other will go to an optical to rca (or spdif) converter before connecting to the amp.

    Does anyone know the specs for the amp and/or subwoofer? The amplifier is a Pioneer GM-1157zsa. I believe the part number is 12794286. I'll post a photo of the label shortly.

    I've looked through this, and it only briefly mentions the subwoofer, not even showing it on the diagram. http://saabworld.net/showthread.php?t=25259

    Thank you.
