SOURCE: Subaru Outback 2005 - Driver side door/window

The switches in Subarus are made by Nissan believe it or not. They are not interchangeable. Anyway, I suspect you have a bad window switch. You can pickup the whole bank of swiches or replace just the one. Do a search on ebay for your part.
Has this car had body damage on the driver's door? You could have a cut wire inside the door.

SOURCE: how to replace power window switch on 2005 subaru,

The Haynes service manual (#89101) shows the window switch panel is only retained by tensioners that are part of the panel and that the method of removal is to carefully pry the entire panel out of its mounting hole. Once the panel is clear of its home, the switch appears to also be only pressed into the panel seat. I think you will find that the switch has 'quick disconnect' connectors that will pull off and plug onto the new switch.

Why won't drivers side power window wont go up or down 2005 subaru forrister

The usual cause is the window motor is worn out. The mechanism (aka regulator) joints are also worn for a 2005. The fix is replace the regulator + motor assembly.

Why won'tdrivers side power window wont go up or down 2005 subaru forister

The usual reason is the window motor bushes have worn out. Look on Amazon for a new Window Regulator kit that includes the window motor. This is FAR easier to install than pulling the kit out to replace the motor. I did this job on my 2005 recently, and it was necessary to cut up the regulator frame (messy job) to get the window glass out. This is NOT an issue if the glass is already up. If its stuck down, the cut-up job is required. If this job sounds beyond your mechanical skills, take it to a garage. The job takes about 3 hours.
