How do I change the clock on a 2008 subaru tribeca

With the key in the ignition turned enough to engage the system and turn on the navigation system's control panel in the center of the console. Hit the "menu" button, go to the navigation part of the menu like you were going to input a trip, and there you will see the "clock" button.

How do I change a low beam headlight on an 08

We have an 05 Legacy and I've done this. Tribeca should be the same way: Look through the engine bay behind the light, you can locate the position by following the wires which actually connect to the bulb assembly. The bulb assembly ought to be removable with a 1/4-1/2 turn and pull motion. Be sure to not touch the replacement bulb with your bare hands. Your Subaru service ought to help you with this and not charge you......

How do I remove the wiper blade from the rear

I went to the dealer and they showed me how to do it. Just pull it back, I thought it would break off----but it doesn't. Pull it back and it snaps right off.

How do you change the

I just had to do this and learned the hard way.

First take the battery out.
Second remove the plastic cap covering the low beam bulb
Thirdly there are 2 screws holding a wire tension spring against the bulb. Losen the screw towards the outside of the car (Don't touch the screw closest to the engin).

Once you do this, the bulb will come out and you can replace it.

Is the dome light switch connected to door latch inside of door, I dont see anything in the door frame, so it must be hidden. 01 forester

First, check the following. I believe the 2001 Forester had a 3 position dome light switch. One position turned it on, one turned it off, and the third position enabled the light to come on when a door opened. Not all years had this type of switch. If yours does, check whether the light comes on for each and every door one at a time. If it fails for a particular door, you have narrowed the problem. If this problem always existed for your Forester, possibly the assembly was not properly done. If it is a new event and the dome light switch is in the proper position, there may be a short in the wiring. You would have to test the wiring with a multimeter. Perhaps this service manual will assist: https://servicingmanuals.com/manual/2001-subaru-forester-wiring-diagram/

1997 Subaru Legacy L, automatic, AWD. Dealer says I need a Transfer Clutch replacement= $2000. Too expensive!

Haha, very good. I went to catering college in Birmingham and the station was near the Heinz factory. On Monday they cooked the tomato ketchup, you could smell it. Help in the link, but it doesn't sound like an easy fix. The part is $330. Check fluid, valves and solenoids first. https://www.google.com/search?q=1997+Subaru+Legacy+L%2C+automatic%2C+AWD+Transfer+Clutch+replacement ..

Is how to reset the system in a 2009 Subaru outback after ignition switch and key computer change dash lights are not working and fuel pumps not coming on

Resetting the system after an ignition switch and key computer change in a 2009 Subaru Outback may involve several steps. Here are some general steps that you can try: **1. Check Fuses: Verify that all relevant fuses are intact. A blown fuse could be causing issues with the dash lights and fuel pump. Consult your vehicle's manual to locate the fuse box and check the appropriate fuses related to the dashboard and fuel pump. **2. Security System Reset: Sometimes, a change in the ignition system can trigger the vehicle's security system. Try resetting the security system by locking and unlocking the doors using the key fob. If your vehicle has an immobilizer system, make sure the new key is programmed correctly. **3. Battery Disconnect: Disconnect the vehicle's battery for about 15-30 minutes. This can help reset various systems in the car. After reconnecting the battery, start the car and check if the issues persist. **4. ECU (Engine Control Unit) Reset: If the engine control unit was replaced or modified, you may need to perform an ECU reset. This typically involves disconnecting the battery, turning on the ignition (without starting the engine) for a few seconds, turning it off, and then reconnecting the battery. **5. Reprogramming Keys: If new keys were added or the computer was changed, make sure that the new keys are programmed correctly to the vehicle's anti-theft system. Refer to your vehicle's manual or contact the dealership for guidance on key programming. **6. Consult a Professional: If the issues persist after attempting these steps, it's advisable to consult a professional mechanic or contact the Subaru dealership for assistance. They may have specialized tools and knowledge to diagnose and address issues related to the ignition system and key computer. Remember to exercise caution when working with electrical components in your vehicle, and if you're not comfortable performing these steps, seek assistance from a qualified mechanic or Subaru service center.
