I believe my 2007 saab 97-x anti theft activated. There is no power to most parts of the car and from time to time the anti theft (car/lock icon on the dash) lights up. I recently replaced a fuse for the starter and I believe I may have accidently triggered it.... Any advice on how to get my car back on the road??

SOURCE: 1997 ES 300 How to reset anti-theft system when car won't start

With the doors shut, insert the key into the drivers door lock. Lock and unlock the door 5 times. This should reset the system. If that doesn't work you should contact a qualified repair shop.

Key fob only works panic button on my 05 saab 9-3t no door or trunk lock and key wont turn ignition after battery disconnect please help

Try this and please let me know it it works for you. A pro mechanic told me a week ago that I am talking rubbish, but I got this FROM a pro mechanic and it has worked for many members here.
Resetting a Vehicle Anti-Theft System after Battery Disconnect
This is how you reset an anti theft system if you have the anti-theft light on, or your car is cranking, but you have no spark.

Doing a full reset of the anti-theft system.

Disconnect both battery leads for at least two hours.
Hold the negative and positive leads together for 5 minutes to fully discharge any residual power in capacitors.
Put the key in the ignition, but not turned on or Fob close to steering wheel. VERY IMPORTANT!
Connect the positive lead.
Connect the negative lead in one swift movement.
Wait 15 minutes for the system to fully reset.

2007 cobalt will not start or turn over. key

Could be a problem with key in ignition switch located on the side of the lock cylinder inside steering column. The one I worked on this was part of whats called clockspring assembly witch will be a dealer only part. Then you cut the two wire swtch off and splice it in so you don't have to remove steering wheel and replace the whole clockspring assembly. Might also be problem with ignition switch (inside column) that key lock cylinder ingages into. I have a couple of questions. Is power going to the dash and just not the starter? Is the security light on all the time and dosn't cycle out? There should be a anti theft reset precedure like leaving key on till light goes out. Good luck hope this helped

If your battery goes flat or you disconnected the car battery, your car stereo anti-theft security system will be activated: you need to consult your car/radio user manual to remove this lock and will need the correct security code.

My volvo s40 2007 model was involve in accindent,Now it won't start.Message immobiliser try start again

If there is a blinking car icon with an "X" over it. This icon means the Immobilizer has been activated and hence won't allow the car to start. It could be due to a bad SCU, Start Control Unit. The SCU is actually the ignition switch on these cars.
Most of the time it's triggered by the anti-theft system..You can try this trick i learned that the dealers won't tell you...try locking and unlocking of the doors five times with the remote to reset the immobilizer and see if this helps.
Since you were in an accident it could be a safety related issue...such as a steering box fault. Your owners manual has some information in it on the immoblizer.
Good luck..i hope this helps...please take time to rate me a fixya,
