Front headlight disassembly instructions

Model: Saab 9 5 Ys3e, MK 1 - Years 1997-2010
Part: Headlight

Open the front hood and make sure it is supported safely. Then unhook the front matte from the bumper simply by pulling it forward; in the same way unhook the side air intakes. Remove the battery cover in order to release the fixing tab of the side light and extract it from its seat. At this point, unscrew the fixing screws of the headlight to be able to remove it (one is located in the compartment of the side air intake). After having carried out the repair on the headlight, proceed backwards for reassembly by correctly re-hooking the grilles and the side light.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
