Thanks for the video Danny. Cheers.

Having the same issue with my TX. I ended up just pulling the fuse so that it doesn't run but I have yet to do diagnosis on whether it's a bad switch or if the hose has a leak. What's the process for diagnosing a bad switch though?

Where to get this switch from ? I need a new one. This switch with brown plug.

Hey I was working at a dealer at this time we had bunch of parts cars and what we parts new were just bought thru dealership. Goldwing saab sells used parts, eeuroparts, esaabparts are good places to start.

@@Retiq im based on EU so that's different. I through that you have access to new parts. Also I have a problem that my pump is always off. I know how this vacuum sensor works. It's just a simple switch with a spring and a membrane. But those are literally breaking often in those cars. I had few of those cars.

Ahhh im sorry iv heard of people not in US who have trouble getting some parts… that stinks
