Possible that the solder joints on the circuit board had developed defects. I think the units are sealed and filled with a tamper-proof rubberized insulating material. SO it might be rather tedious for anyone to try and refurbish the unit, or even inspect the circuit board for that matter.
I would still like to think that it has more to do with the wiring harness connection, because it is rather "exposed to the elements",. And as you said, its kinda shameful to have such an expensive and piece of technology flunk out so early in its service life.
I have always had some doubts about the SAAB XWD system. I think that it may have been rushed through the beta-testing to get it to market.
