1998 Saab 900SE turbo 2L conv. lid motor is clicking / makes 1 fold...lucky to get it back down .
Have owned my Saab since 2007 ...never any problems with raising or lowering lid til yesterday..clicking from right rear. Unable to go up more than first fold over window then lucky to get back down but w/o locking. Auto shop on HHI looked at it today & pronounced need for a new right rear lid motor for $1100-1400 + labor w/o even getting to the motor. I've had a lot of puzzling electrical issues with this car that Saab or our local tech in Ma could resolve ( unable to locate a trained Saab tech on HHI, SC). I hate to buy a used motor if something else might be a simpler fix...car has 177K
miles & gets 30mpg hwy. Luv my Saab.
