150 Interior equipment, trunkManually opening the
fuel filler door Coupé and 5-door models If the fuel filler door (which is controlled by
the central locking system) does not unlock,
proceed as follows.
Check fuse 25. If it is blown or its replace-
ment blows, you can release the lock motor
from the door as follows:
1 Use a sharp knife to release the pre-cut
rectangle on the right in the upholstery in
the trunk so that you can access the two
retaining screws that secure the lock
motor to the fuel filler door.
2 Unscrew the retaining screws some-
what and back them out through the
screw holes, whereupon the lock motor
will be released from the door.
Have an authorized Saab dealer investigate
the problem.
