I just fixed this problem on my 95 legacy wagon. I did evreything needed to replace the headlight switch. My switch has 2 pieces I seperated both pieces and cleaned the contact in between both pieces. that's all I did, no money for part's!

i had the same problem on my sube, i removed the starter and took it apart and cleaned and lubed it and it works fine now.

short circuit in the switches somewhere

The fuel pump is located behind the rear seat on the passenger side. Remove the upholstery cover to expose the metal oval cover which will expose the fuel pump. D/C the neg terminal and the electrical connector. Remove the nuts to release the fuel pump from the tank. Only now you can release the fuel hoses. Reverse the procedure to reinstall the new fuel pump.

There is no great difficulty in doing this, you can download the procedure from one of my websites here...

Test to see if you have voltage at the bulb connector in low beam position. I'd almost bet that if there is no voltage there for the low beams that you have a bad high/low switch.

English language manual for my 1998 Legacy wagon carries the heading "Fuses and circuits" on pp.11-6 to 11-9. With three subheadings as follows:
*Fuse panel located under the dashboard
*Fuse panel behind the instrument panel lower cover
*Fuse panel located in engine compartment

Each includes fuse panel number, fuse rating, and circuit.

I suggest you obtain a manual for your model.
Or, If I have a clear photo or copy of the Japanese language specs I can translate into English.
Or, I can provide the four pages from my English manual if you figure the fuse specs are the same for your model.

did try the junk yard or the web sites on here

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE A SEALED ASSEMBLY. YOU WILL NEED TO REMOVE THE COMPLETE HEADLAMP TO ACCESS THE BULBS.
