SAAB 9000 Instrument/Dash Lamp Dimmer Posted by goodwrenchldj [Email] (#2641) [Profile/Gallery] (more from goodwrenchldj) on Wed, 18 Oct 2023 05:50:00 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have been driving 9000's continuously since 1989. The two 1998's I currently own are numbers four and five. Instrument/Dash Lamp Dimmers have been a continuing problem.
My recollection is that SAAB used two different dimmers over the years. The failed ones in my current collection bear SAAB part number 95-17-806 and SWF 501.306. According to essabparts.com new ones are currently unavailable.
I am currently traveling but will be home on October 27th. I will then check to see if this is the P/N on the functional dimmer in one of my 9000's. I will also check to see if I have any that might have been produced by a supplier other than SWF.
Have any of you encountered this problem? More importantly has anyone discovered a way to repair the SWF dimmers or the other ones that I recall?
