Anyone have luck with this on a 2015 2008 Saab 9 7X?

I have a 2011 2008 Saab 9 7X, will this method work for that year?

Just checking in to say this helped with my 2008 Saab 9 7X. Thanks!

My 2008 Saab 9 7X is just sitting there waiting for a miracle like this.

Appreciate any advice—my 2008 Saab 9 7X won’t recognize the key.

Common questions about key programming, fob issues, and replacement options

Key Programming
Professional key programming requires: diagnostic tools to access the immobilizer system, key code software, transponder programmers, and often proprietary manufacturer equipment. Some locksmiths and all dealers have these tools.
Key Tip: Replace key fob batteries every 1-2 years as preventative maintenance
Key Programming
Common reasons: wrong key type for your vehicle, anti-theft system needs reset, low car battery voltage during programming, or the key isn't properly synced. Some cars also have programming limits (only 2-4 keys can be registered).

Lost Keys
Locksmiths or dealers can: 1) Decode your door or ignition lock to determine key cuts 2) Access your car's key code through manufacturer databases (with proof of ownership) 3) Program new transponder keys using diagnostic equipment.
