2003 Saab 9-3 All Keys Lost Programming Tips

Question:
2003 Saab 9-3 all keys lost, Can xhorse vvdi key tool plus do this key?
I live in the US and they haven’t sold Saab here in a very long time.
Ii know Saab uses a tech2 as their scan tool? Can tech2 do the key?

Solution:

If USA cars are like EU cars both generations exist as 2003 model.

1) If it’s 1st gen it’s twice module under the seat. Need to read the Motorola processor and write key to t5.

2) If it is the second generation 9-3 it is CIM module out (behind the steering wheel) and need to read the eeprom. Read it in circuit, because it’s pretty bad stuck with protective coating. There is big chance to damage the board if you try to remove it.

You can read dump with vvdi prog and make file key with vvdi2.
GM tech2 can not do keys in all keys lost situation. Was working for Saab. The dealer solution is new module with keys. If you have used module with key programmed to it, it is pretty easy to adapt it to the car with tech2 tho.
