900 SE Convertible V6-2498cc 2.5L DOHC (1995)
Saab Information Display (SID) 2 and 3 incorporate a service indicator which causes the "TIME FOR SERVICE" message to appear in the SID unit
display when the car is due for scheduled service. This is governed by the odometer which tells how many miles the car has covered since the last time it
was serviced. The service interval is programmable and programmed at the factory to suit different market requirements. If necessary, the service interval
can be changed with the aid of a Intellegent Saab Tester (ISAT) Scan Tool.
On model year 1995 and later cars the number of days since the last time the car was service is also counted.
Activation of the service message
M1994: The service message appears when only 1,000 km or 600 miles remain until the next scheduled service is due.
M1995: Depending on which occurs first, the service message appears when the day counter reaches 365 days or when only 1,000 km or 600 miles
remain until the next scheduled service is due.
Manual resetting
To clear the service message, press the CLEAR button for at least eight seconds. "CLEARED" will then appear in the display after four seconds and an
acoustic signal will be heard. "SERVICE" will appear four seconds later and another acoustic signal will be heard. On resetting, the service interval will
be revised upward and the day counter zeroized (M1995 only). The service message will not appear now until it time for the scheduled service.
Resetting with a Intellegent Saab Tester (ISAT) Scan Tool
On model year 1995 cars it is possible to use a Intellegent Saab Tester (ISAT) Scan Tool to reset the service message even if it has not been activated.
This is useful if the car is serviced prior to a long journey. The interval to the next scheduled service is then calculated on the basis of the current
odometer reading. When the service message is reset, the day counter is zeroized at the same time.
