The trunk on my 03 saab 9-3 seems to open on its own. Its happend at least 4 times now, it will be parked in the garage overnight and in the morning I notice the trunk open. Naturally my battery is dead after being open all night. At first I thought I might be hitting the button on the keyless entry but after several times I know somthing else is causing this problem. Has any one had this problem or does anyone have some ideas? Thanks

Ha bro, all saabs comes with a system when working correctly, after 20 min turns of all electrical components & lights leaving only the alarm system function, so in your case you have a wiring or a component that is not going to sleep after that 20min time frame, you will need to check out the trunk lock motor & wiring, good luck
