Hello,
I would really check the battery cables at several spots. Make sure that terminals are very clean were they contact the battery post. If you have original cables you should scrape the inner surface of the terminal. They are made out of brass I believe and they need to look like clean brass were they contact the terminal.
Another place to really check is the 2 main grounds 1 on the body and 1 on the transmission. Clean both the cable portion and the contact area. To test the negative cable I would get a helper and check for any voltage drop over the cable when trying to start it.
If you end up needing cables I would recommend battery cables USA. Just go to there sight and search Saab. They work very good and they are cheap. Good Luck, Bernie
