Saab 900 1989 – 1990 Service Manual

3:2 Electrical system, system diagrams, operation and fault tracing. This Service Manual deals with the electrical systems of the 1989 and 1990 models of the Saab 900. This Manual is a supplement to the Service Manual, Group 3:1, Electrical system, Instruments.

This Manual also deals with the Saab 900 Convertible, for which some of the functions are described separately. Other functions are the same as on the 2-door and 4-door models.

The purpose of this Manual is to facilitate fault tracing and service work on the electrical system of the car. So each electrical sub-system, such as the ignition system, hazard warning lights, etc., is described individually, and a separate wiring diagram is shown for each sub-system. Each such diagram is an extract from the comprehensive wiring diagram for the car.

A list of the electrical components of the car is included at the end of this Manual.
The comprehensive diagram for the entire electrical system of the car is presented in a separate book — Group 3:4.

This Manual is applicable to cars delivered to all markets. Note that certain cars delivered to the European market, for instance, may be equipped in accordance with the “USA specification”. This Manual should not be used for the Saab 90, Saab 99 and earlier models of the Saab 900, even though many of the electrical systems may be very similar.
