Well, on my Lunch today, I removed the Lock Cylinder and took it apart. I found a broken, very small piece of metal from the cylinder's housing but couldn't identify where it came from? I took the Cylinder apart and removed all the Tumblers. Tossed them in the garbage and put the Cylinder back together. So now it works great but since no Tumblers, you can pull the Key out anytime. Then tonight I read the post from Jimmy about repairing the Cylinder. I doubt I can find the tiny springs in the garbage, if they didn't fly across the room when I took it apart. Not really too worried about the Car getting stolen. No one here would want a SAAB and they'd need the Key's responder to start the Car anyway. I'll see if I can find any of the springs in my garbage can. I suppose if I want to restore original functionality, I could buy a Cylinder for parts and make a good one that matches my Key's profile.
Thanks for all the help - too bad I didn't wait a day to work on it.
