Subject: 98 9-3 Flattens Battery for no apparent reason!


Hi Saab Dudes My 98 9-3 has an unfortunate habit of flattening its battery for no apparent reason. I've replaced the battery and checked that all the ancilliary lighting goes out (glove box, boot etc). The only other thing I could think of is the interior temperature sensor, which has a small fan fitted to it and usually stays running long after the car has been locked. For now, I've disconnected it, but I wondered if anyone knew how long the thing is supposed to operate for after the car is stopped, why it needs to run on and if anyone has ever had problems with these devices. Many Thanks Steve
