Had same prob on my 98 9-5 V6... The thingy cost me USD 600 in Moscow, and not on warranty (btw, the throttle body for the 4cyl was aprox USD 400 here). Appears this device is a common failure in 9-5s. It is made by Hella, even has hella part numbers on it, however (!) it's not in Hella's general catalogues, and appears to be produced for Saab exclusively. (I got a kind offer to ship a bulk order to me of 50 units haha... Less than 10 V6 9-5's in Moscow in total).
The unit has an electronic part which, in particular, measures the position of the throttle. I have no idea why it's so fragile and so critical as to trigger an absolutely painful limp home mode...
