    Remote lock Saab 9-3 stop working after change of battery

    Have you tried pressing the lock button 5 times in a row?

    Or switching the ignition on and pressing the lock button more than 5 times.

    TIP -
    Take a jewelers screwdriver and new battery and do the change inside the car. I replaced my remote battery and couldn't get the new one synced for the life of me.
    Did it sitting in the drivers seat and worked straight away.
    Yep, Saabs are strange.
