I have a 1999 Saab 95 4 Cylinder with 105,000 miles. Last week the
auto lock and unlock entry key stopped working, the ding ding ding
bell is on when I turn the car off and open the door, the radio does
not shut itself off when I turn the car off and take out the key. The
dealership said they traced the problem to the "Twice" module which
is, under the driver seat. It is a box with a bunch of wires connected
to it. They said it cost $900 for the part. I tried to find a "Twice"
module on Saab parts sellers on the internet but there is no such
thing listed for sale. No part called a Twice module. Does anyone have
experience with this type of electronic issue or know what the part is
called that is under the driver seat. So far I can live with the
problem but the deal said it could get worse, where more electronics
are effected, like the power windows for example. Thanks,

Not sure what could be causing your problem, but the dealer is right
about the TWICE module. It is located under the driver's seat on LHD
cars (Don't know about RHD). The Theft Warning Intergrated Central
Electronics module is used for a number of functions including key
recognition. This will be a dealer only part and will need a Tech II
to install a new one.
You can get a used one, but you will need a transponder that is
already programmed to that TWICE so you can program the rest of your
keys.

If you lose all your keys, the is the part that has to be replaced.

Good luck,
Steve Crowe

Thanks Steve. Now my central display is warning me that my anti theft
alarm system needs to be check out. I think you pointed me in the
right direction for an expensive dealer repair. David
