After much research and talking to many, the problem for my replacement Xenon Headlight was the control module. Saab part number 5408497. Many refered to this part as a Ballast but the correct term is Control Module.
To remove headlight assembly, there are two 10mm bolts and one phillips screw. There is a clip that secures the side light to the headlight accessed from behind. Push down on the clip and the side light can now slide forward. The first 10mm bolt is under the side light. The second 10mm bolt is behind the front grill. After removing top clips for grill, remove the small grill vent adjacent to the light. You can now remove the last 10mm bolt. The rest is self explanatory. Good luck
