Saab car keys have always held a special place in the hearts of car enthusiasts. The combination of unique Scandinavian designs, safety and ease of use ensures that even years after the production of new models, Saab has a loyal fan base. Car key maintenance and repair is a common topic within the community. Especially at Carkeyglobal.com, we often get questions about replacing parts, repairing housings and working with microswitches. In this article you will discover all about Saab car keys, from classic ignition keys to modern smart keys.
Saab car keys through the years
The classic ignition keys
Older Saab models use traditional ignition keys, known for their durability and simple construction. Repair of these keys is often relatively simple: a worn housing or damaged key blade can usually be replaced without the electronics.
The introduction of the Saab fob
With more modern models, Saab introduced the fob: a remote control car key. This contains delicate electronics and microswitches that wear out over time. Often the problem seems to be a dead battery, but usually the microswitches are the real culprit.
Microswitches: the silent heroes of your Saab car key
Many Saab drivers notice that the buttons become less responsive. Microswitches are then often worn or dirty. Fortunately, these are easy to replace, returning the key to working as intended.
The solution: repair instead of replacement
No reprogramming required
A major advantage of microswitch repair is that the key remains linked to your car.
Affordable and durable
Microswitch replacement is more economical than a new key and better for the environment.
Reliability
Correctly installed microswitches work trouble-free for years.
Step-by-step instructions.
-Carefully open the key housing
-Remove the old microswitches
-Place the new switches in the correct position
-Test the buttons
-Close the housing carefully
