Saab Tuning: Enabling OpenSID - Trionic Seven
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 09. 2015
- This video shows how to enable OpenSID in your T7 Saab 9-5 or Saab 9-3. This video shows the procedure for my Saab 9-5 Aero from 2002.
OpenSID allows you to see live engine data in your information display, which allows you to read fault codes, boost pressure and much more. I will soon upload a video showing how you can put OpenSID to good use.
Since we will be modifying our ECU software, we need to take several precautions. Never flash your stock ECU, but buy a spare and put the new software there. If anything goes wrong with the flashing and the ECU becomes bricked, you can simply swap the original back and your car will run fine. This video is not for the beginner. Do your due diligence and read up on installing OpenSID and ECU flashing before attempting this guide.
You will need an interface between the computer and the ECU. I will not go into details here since there are so many ways to do it, but I prefer to use JohnC's Combi Adapter from the TrionicTuning.com forum via my p-bus connector in the OBD2 port.
In addition, you need the T7Suite and TrionicCanFlasher software.
Be warned. Enabling OpenSID is the gateway drug to more advanced flashing. Soon you will be hunting for tuning packages and optimizing fuel maps ;)

Glad I found your channel! I just picked up an '04 9-5 Aero manual this morning!
+localfuckingized Hey, good luck with your car! It's a lot of fun :)
Don´t forget to make a video about the combi adaptor you promised in this video!! And about the OpenSID too!! :-)
Great work as allways!! :-)
I haven't forgotten! Just too many videos to make and too little time! Thanks for keeping me in check ;)
Hey, I found out that my stage one ECU came with open SID! But when i see videos of others with open SID, they are very different from mine. Looking forward to your open SID video.
+Daniel Gomez Good find. What is the difference you see?
Woah, Alexa play halsey
Thank you Jonathan, Great Video, My Baby is a SAAB 900NG SE Turbo 1996, Pretoria , South Africa.
Skål !!
Skål! ;)
Once again, thanks for some very useful info. Looking forward to your ECU removal video, it seems difficult to bend the plastic windshield cowl out of the way without breaking it, so I didn't yet have the courage to go thru with it. I thought about removing the whole cowl but was unsuccessful at removing the wiper arms. They are held so tight that they broke my removal tool!
+vb3347 Yes, the wiper arms are a pain. I will finish the video within the next few weeks, stay tuned :)
Great work!!! Thank you!!!. Unfortunately I have 9-3'08 ;-)
Take a look at eSid2! :)
My dear friend Thanks for the valuable information
Because I am going to buy this car SAAB 95 2.3t 2008 model
Thank you....
That's a good buy!
Hej! Är detta möjligt på NG? Jag vet att det finns funktioner som t.ex. laptimer i systemet, men ingen aning hur man ”låser upp” dessa funktioner.
Jag kom på att du går på LiU. Skulle gärna vilja prata med dig någon dag. Började Maskinteknik Civilingenjör nu i augusti.
Följde också dig från universitetet från valla-rondellen tills du vek in mot stan och jag var tvungen att svänga åt andra hållet för att komma till Norrköping, men du såg inte att jag gav dig tummen upp när vi körde in i rondellen Bergsvägen-Industrigatan
+Oskar “Cr4zySwede” Lind Jonsson Haha, jag blir igenkänd på stan numera ;) Kul, du får väl tuta och blinka nästa gång så jag ser dig. Om du vill prata kan du komma förbi mitt kontor, skicka ett mejl till info@trionicseven.com så kan vi prata där.
Hello Jonathan,
Amazing and very useful video's. I recently bought a Saab 9-3 Coupe. MY2001 (150bhp) and am interested in boosting the power a little. Your videos cover the 9-5 mainly so are there any videos that specifically cover the 9-3 (with T7 of course)?
T7 9-3 and T7 9-5 are very similar!
Okay, but how should I make the changes to the OBD port since my Saab does not have ESP nor CD changer. I am new to this subject, so I might ask the wrong questions or point in the wrong direction.
Coool video - tack kille :)
Glad you liked it ;)
I did ! I've a used black 2005 Saab 93, have admired the car for years (in UK where I lived before) I would certainly love to give it some modernisations, t.ex, modifying head/rear lamps with beaded LEDs . Would attempt custom but if u anyon eon your crew that have come up with similar solutions, would really love to know. tusen tack for my first (heart) lol !
I'd say just go ahead and try stuff, it's quite simple. However, if you don't know what you are doing stay away from electrical stuff as you can damage things.
it would be great if u could show me some efforts of anyone u know of who has customised lighting with their -93's . Cheers
Hi, my OB2 adapter has a USB cable connected to it that i can plug straight into my laptop, with this do i still need the Combi adapter? On my Trionic 7 Program, only two options comes up for me which are Flash ECU and Read ECU, whereas in your one you had several options, and also the option of choosing the combi adapter. I'm just slightly confused and if i need a combi adapter.
+Djamal Djaidi An obd2 adapter is not enough, you need a canbus adapter. The combi adapter does the same as a canbus adapter but does it faster and better. Make sure you have the latest version of T7suite.
Tjena. Do you really need the combi adapter though? If you're able to read/write ECU though the obd2/usb adapter - won't that be enough?
Hi I found few days ago your channel, are the tools still available?
Hi, Wijit here. I am new to the T7 but want to enable the open SID and turbo gage on my 9-5 year 2001. My question to you is can I use a ODB2-USB interface instead of Combi? Just a beginner may ask some more question. By the way I am from Thailand.
Thanks
Wijit
Hello where did you get this OBD2 to cs232 cable? Already got the Combi adapter from johnc but got no cable for that.
Generic ebay obd2 to rs232 cable, but I had to resolder the pins to get the correct pinout
Hey. I have a stage 1 ecu on my 9-5 2004 b205. But can't find much difference in power. Can you please make a video of how to set the menu on the sid. (which mode to select, or how to set it to feel that 220bhp under the accelerator pedal)
Engine mode doesn't change performance. You should check with your tuner why you don't feel a difference.
How can I install an aftermarket headunit in a 2004 saab 93
Hej. Jag har en 9-3 1.9tid från 2010 och vill lära mig men fått sagt att det kanske inte sitter en T7. Hur vet jag vad där sitter utan att plocka ut ecu'n?
Hi can open sid be enabled on my 2006 9-5 1.9 tid?
Regards Nick
Yes
Can you make a video on how to enter the radio code
Sorry, you'll need tech2 for that. And if it wants a radio code it means you have a fault in the radio. Every time you remove the car battery the problem will come back. You have a bad memory circuit EEPROM in the head unit.
Had this issue. The problem just comes back. I lived without a radio for a couple weeks, and now I installed an aftermarket headunit. That's the best solution honestly.
Is it the same for Saab 9-5 2007? My mechanic has no problem with 9-3 OG nor with 9-5 OG phase 1 and 2, but is not managing with phase 3 models
Yes, it is different
Is there any change to the process when doing this on a 2006+ 9-5 ?
Not really. Check my flashing t7 video for more info.
några tips på var man säkrast kan få tag på en trionic 7 ecu? finns det vissa ställen som är bra att köpa på vs ställen man ska hålla sig undan?
Det brukar komma och gå på olika ställen, titta på Saab köp och sälj på facebook och leta efter någon som säljer sin bil i delar. Med lite tur får du den för 200 kr :)
+Trionic Seven: For Saab Enthusiasts tack så mycket för hjälpen! Du är grym! :)
Tja! det silvriga /gråa runt mätarhuset och stereon osv. är det original? eller kan jag köpa det någonstans? Vill byta bort mitt trä aktiga..
+Lukas Jaredal Hej! Det är alu-panelen som kommer med Aero. Finns många som säljer den, tror tom speedparts har rea på den nu!
+Trionic Seven: For Saab Enthusiasts passar den på en 9-3 årsmodell 99?
9-5 och 9-3 har olika paneler, så det kommer inte passa.
hi. i have question. i bought saab 9-5 2.0 t 2002. i have got double engine ecu in trunk. i didn' ask previous owner why he changed ecu. do i have to do some basic settings if i want to plug it in just for check is it ok. i am asking because the imob..?
this is my first car in Norway so i don't want to do some shit to the ecu. thanks.
Any special features with the current ECU? I mean, tuning, opensid, removed secondary lambda etc.
There's no harm in trying, check my "ECU replacement" video for the jury-rig setup.
no. i don't know what for is it second one ecu?
everything is like from factory i didn' t notice enything special
Go ahead and try it, it can't go (much) wrong :)
ok i will try. i was just asking because i didn't know is there imob. in the ecu. i have worked at VAG So it is little bit difference. 😊. thanks for help
Hi , can i open the SID with tech 2 ?
No, you must follow the method shown in the vid.
You wouldn't happen to have to 3d model for this case?
A guy on trionictuning sells the 3d printed cases, I don't have the model myself unfortunately
i did. it is ok now. probably this ecu is broken...
Could be. Open up the broken ECU and check the colors on the plastic feet. Blue => OK. Black => Faulty design. Check my intro to tuning video for more info.
Hej så du bor I Linköping`? Ja bor i Linkan har en 9-5 Griffin!
Jag bor i Jönköping och veckopendlar till Linköping! Du får komma förbi träffarna vid Max Torvinge 1830 på onsdagar! :)
Jobbar oftast då tyvärr. men om jag har tid så kanske det går. Har problem med min årsmodell 2000 3,0 V6:a tyvärr läckande topplock och den rycker vid gasuppsläpp kostnad ca 20000 kr Hos Toreéns söker efter någon som kan hjälpa mig billigare.Älskar ju min 9-5 I övrigt går den som en klocka! har haft den i 7-8 år. Hade 2 st 9000 innan.
Ajdå, tråkigt när en motor börjar gå dåligt. Har hört att just V6:an har en massa problem men ska vara trevlig att köra!
Ring Jonas Bilverkstad i Vänersborg, han kanske kan hjälpa dig för billigare peng
+Trionic Seven: For Saab Enthusiasts Ja den är helt underbart att köra bra drag i och härlig med sportlovet på automaten det känns att den mappar om!
Do you know of any way to swap a 2001 9-5 Aero DIC cassette over to a 2005 9-3 single coil (x4) setup? (would be nice to get rid of those expensive cassettes and be able to just swap single coils)?
No, I'd say that will be impossible
@@TrionicSeven its not i have seen other cars exactly same type of engine have custom separate coils when it was clearly missing the pack
Hei guys can i ask you somethinks wrong whit my conections whit ECU where could i faund someone who can help me whit this?Thx
What is this phone holder?
COULD YOU HELP ME WITH A SABB 93 ECU FLASH
How can I change the date in the SID ?
Ok. I helgen skall P-bus in i obd2an... Extra ECU ligger på bordet... Nu skall jag bara bli medlem på Trionoctuning o fixa en adapter..... Det är FARLIGT att börja pilla.... man kan lixom inte sluta :-D
Borde vara varningar på saab, extremt beroendeframkallande!
were can i get sedanadapter
+henke103 Combi adapter? Check the links in the description.
i have a sedan i need the sedanadapter
+henke103 Clever!
im sirious i have a sedan
In case you weren't joking, it's called combi adapter because it has both canbus and bdm connectors, it will work both for a wagon (combi) and sedan car
car doesn't want to start. ecu is bad. that is the catch.. 😆😆
Put back your spare ECU
