You can then undo the grille and remove it, giving you free access to see what the problem is. This happened to me a while back and it was the small spring that had snapped and parts of the mechanism had fallen off. The above procedure worked for me. Good luck, Paul 1989 900 Turbo S http://saab.go.dyndns.org/
