SAAB 9-3 Disassemble ECM 2003-2011 PCB Repair T8 ECU ECM Codes P0201, P0202, P0203, P0204, P0245

This info is the same for all T8 ECMs.

with / intermittent hard starting, rough running, white smoke, or over-boosting issues.

We are gonna replace the most common cause of SAAB 9-3 T8 ECU failure: the TPIC46L02 that drives the injectors and the wastegate. There are potentially other bad chips but always start with that one if you are getting all the codes listed above.

If you have different codes than the ones I list above then it’s probably not the chip I am replacing here (see the comments).
