2:5 Traction Information
) Manual
M 1991-1995
Foreword
TIM is designed to assist and simplify fault tracing
and repair of only the most common TCS problems
on Saab 9000 cars. TIM is not a substitute for the
existing TCS Service Manual, Section 2:5, but
instead a supplement intended to be used in con-
junction with the Service Manual.

Warning, Important and Note
The headings "Warning", "Important" and "Note"
occur from time to time in the Service Manual. They
are used to draw the attention of the reader to in-
formation of special interest and seriousness. The
importance of the information is indicated by the
three different headings and the difference between
them is explained below.
Warns of the risk of material damage and grave
injury to mechanics and the driver, as well as
serious damage to the car.
Important
Points out the risk of minor damage to the car and
also warns the mechanic of difficulties and time-
wasting mistakes.
Note
Hints and tips on how the work can be done in a
way that saves time and labour. This information is
not supplied for reasons of safety.

?;
To
assist in fault
diagnosis when working on the TRACTION CONTROL
SYSTEM fitted to Saab cars.
Goal -"FIX IT RIGHT FIRST TIME".
You are expected to have a reasonable understanding of how the Traction
Control System works. If you do not, please refer to Service Manual for
an explanation of system operation .
You should take the necessary precautions in your work at all times to
avoid accidents and injury, particularly observing important HEALTH and
SAFETY regulations.
The TIM should be well looked after and regularly updated. Take it with
you when you go to the TRAINING SCHOOL.

2 TCS Information Manual (TIM)
General rules for fault diagnosis
Many components that our tests show to be in per-
fect condition are still being replaced.
To avoid the replacement of components in perfect
condition, the following steps should always be
taken.
• If diagnostic trouble codes are obtained, check
the operation of the relevant components or sys-
tem using a Scan Tool as described in Service
Manual 2:5 and/or in this manual. All importers
have been supplied with this Manual. It contains
selected information explaining how to diagnose
faults and rectify them.
• Check the wiring and connectors for continuity,
poor contact, damaged connecting pins, etc. Use
"KONTAKT 61 part No. 45-30 04 520, which is
an aerosol contact cleaner lubricant with good
long-term reliability specially developed for elec-
trical connectors and switches.
• When changing several components at the same
time, make sure that the components really are
defective before fitting replacements.

Testing procedures
Customer contact and preliminary inspection
Note
Before touching the car, try to obtain as much
information as possible about the nature of the
fault.
Action:
ASK, LOOK AND LISTEN.
ASK
- Talk with the driver of the car and ask him
about the fault.
LISTEN
- When did the fault occur and what were the
symptoms?
- Was the accelerator harder to depress and was
engine response different?
LOOK
Did any warning or indicator lamps come on? .

LISTEN
- Did the car restart OK?
Workshop inspection
Action:
LOOK and LISTEN.
Note
Carry out a visual inspection of the car but do
not touch anything.
LOOK
Look for broken components and loose connec-
tions under the bonnet.
LISTEN
Listen to the engine. Is it running OK?

LOOK
Look to see if any extra equipment is fitted. If it
is, it may be affecting the TCS. Check that the
mobile phone, anti-theft alarm, etc. are correctly
installed. ·

Before the road test
Action:
READ Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
CONNECTA SCANTOOL
Plug the scan tool into a data link connector
(green or black) under the right-hand front seat.

Testing procedures 7
READ THE DTCs
Carry out fault diagnosis on all systems from
both the green and black data link connectors
and make a note of all the diagnostic trouble
codes.
CLEAR THE DTCs
Clear the trouble codes in all systems but do not
recalibrate any systems at this time.
Power Off test
It has been found that DTCs.
can be generated in
other systems on .
·
models during the ETS
system Power-Off test (performed each time the
ignition is switched off) while the scan tool is still
connected. On all models it is therefore advisable
to terminate scan tool communication before
switching OFF the ignition.
ENTERCOMMANDCODES
Enter command codes according to the DTCs
obtained as described above. Refer to "Com-
mand Codes" on page 18.

It has been found that OTCs can be generated on
certain models during the ETS system Power-Off
test (performed each time the ignition is switched
off) while the scan tool is still connected. On all
models it is therefore advisable to terminate scan
tool communication before switching OFF the igni-
tion.
NEWCOOES
Proceed to the OTC fault diagnosis charts on page
70 and deal only with these new codes in sequential
order.
NO NEW CODES
Refer to the original codes noted during "Before the
road test". Proceed to the OTC fault diagnosis chart
on page 70 and deal with each code in sequential
order.
