Need diagram for 1995 subaru legacy automatic
It's a bad solenoid. Reverse and low gears work off the same set of clutches. If you have first gears , then its a solenoid problem. I would first start by pulling plugs, transmission, TCM and everything in between. Check for corrosion, Use an ohm meter and check the wires for continuity. On some models the safety neutral switch/ range selector switch has a lot to do with how the transmission shifts. If the tcm can't read the switch it wont send power to the solenoid. so far I haven't found a place that will sell just solenoids. You have to buy the whole package. These start at about $200.00
Location of the inertia switch 2.2 wagon L
subaru does not use such a switch.
you have a simple no start condition
begin by checking the camshaft and crankshaft sensors, this generation of legacy had issues with these sensors.
After that go with the common items next, test the battery and starter for correct operation.
The fuse box door will not stay closed
maybe add a layer or 2 of masking tape to the plastic 'keeper' that snaps on the door? Or perhaps a replacement door from a junkyard car could be fitted? You could get 'creative' with Velcro or magnets too.
Why my 1995 Legacy stalls at a stop light and sometimes would not star? Any suggestions?
You might have an issue with your idle air control valve, it really depends on when your vehicle acts up. Does it happen only when the car is warmed up? Or does it happen all the time? Or only when it's cold out. I have seen a few spider nests in the tube/hose that runs from the top of the throttle body, down to just behind the power steering pump. It goes to a valve that has a purple connector. I would remove that hose first and check it for a blockage. No tools are needed for this check, the hose just pulls off with a little effort. I would start there at least. I hope this info helps!

ENGINE TORQUE DISTRIBUTION – DIRECTING THE FLOW
OF POWER
In an all-wheel-drive vehicle, engine power can be
directed to all four wheels. Subaru Symmetrical AWD differs slightly
from model to model in how it directs power to the wheels, depending on
its transmission.
MODELS
WITH FIVE-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION – CONTINUOUS ALL-WHEEL DRIVE:
A viscous-type locking center differential and limited-slip rear
differential help distribute torque – normally configured at a 50/50
split front to rear. If wheel speed differs between front and rear
axles, the center and/or rear differentials lock up to help distribute
power to the wheels with the most traction.
MODELS
WITH FOUR-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS – ACTIVE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE:
An electronically controlled variable transfer clutch and limited-slip
rear differential distribute power to where traction is needed. Sensors
monitor parameters such as wheel slippage, throttle position, and
braking to help determine torque distribution and direct it to the
wheels with optimum traction.
MODELS
WITH FIVE-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION – VARIABLE TORQUE DISTRIBUTION
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE: As with Active All-Wheel Drive, an
electronically controlled variable transfer clutch distributes power,
but through a planetary-type center differential and a viscous-type
limited-slip rear differential. Torque distribution is normally
configured at a performance-oriented rear-wheel-biased 45/55 split front
to rear. Sensors monitor the same parameters as for Active All-Wheel
Drive.
WRX STI,
WITH SIX-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION – DRIVER CONTROLLED CENTER
DIFFERENTIAL (DCCD) ALL-WHEEL DRIVE: The STI uses an
electronically managed multi-plate transfer clutch and a mechanical
limited-slip differential in conjunction with a planetary-gear-type
center differential to control power distribution between the front and
rear wheels. Featuring manual and three automatic modes, DCCD is
normally configured at a 41/59 split front to rear. Sensors monitor
parameters such as wheel slippage, steering angle, throttle position,
and braking to help determine torque distribution and direct it to the
wheels with optimum traction. DCCD also features a limited-slip helical
front and Torsen® rear differential. ... }
And what are the symptoms? How do you know the coupling to the rear is not working?
1995 legesy adjusting drivers door window
If it won't go all the way up or down, pull the door panel and move the stops on each end of the door glass. You'll see what I speak of once you get the door panel off.
My gas gauge does not work?
If you're fuel gauge stopped working, this would not affect the fuel pump or pump relay. More then likely, the sending unit is at fault. You may check fuses to see if this vehicle has a fuse for the gauge. some do. The fuel pump has a relay under hood and also a 30 amp fuse.Has separate circuits for gauges.I would be looking at the sending unit.
Good Luck, Sinserely, shastalaker7
Takes spurts of not wanting to start but runs great when it starts.
Hi Katherine, I'm glad to help!
Oh my Lord, where do I start. NOTE: These are only possible causes that happen ever day. (1) It could be the material inside the muffler and cat converter that is broken up and what happens is while your driving down the road sometimes the material causes a restriction and the back pressure causes the engine to lose power and run bad. Then after turning the engine off and setting a while the material falls down and then it runs fine the next time you use the vehicle. (2) The fuel pump relay or auto-shut-down relay could be bad or could have wiring issues and at times causes the engine to run bad. (3) I call this one junk in the trunk. Because you may have debris in the gas tank that sometimes is pulled up into the fuel filter and causes the pump pressure to be to low to run the engine properly. (4) The Spark Plug Wires could be breaking down (Arcing on the engine) causing misfires which will cause it to run bad. Katherine this is just a few possibilities that may help you or lead you in the right direction and all of these can be checked without a scan tool. Hope this helps and have an awesome day Katherine.
