“Twice, after going through a car wash, the srs light came on. Brought it to dealer who reset it, stating that moisture had gotten into the harness somewhere. After reading about the recall for 92-94 9000 models with a similar problem, I called Saab. Saab told me I could have this looked at or fixed by the dealer at my cost. Is this related and what should I do.”
