dangerous Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) 97 legacy outback. So pulled the dashboard since I do have power coming through the firewall and up to the multi wired plug. Traced that wire to a split with two other wires, and power there. Then traced the wires from the relays back through where those 3 red wires join 1 then it goes back to another slpit that come in with another wire to a single wire no power there, but then that wire goes in behind the frame n the venting n such so can't go futher. Wondering if I should jump from the power coming in over to where I don't have power? Edited June 30, 2015 by dangerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Problem is probably in the connector. Check voltage on each side of the connector. If there's no voltage past that just cut the red wire and splice in a new section to bypass the connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 I've got the power al the way up to where it goes into where I can't get at it. Then when it comes back out there is no power, so thats why I was thinking that I'd just jump it over to that point. Then "hopefully" I'd still have power going to where ever the short is, and then also going to the relays, and back to where the short is on the other side?

Fairtax4me Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Yeah its kind of a tight spot up in there. How long is the section that you can't get to? Can you pull the wiring to one side or the other to see if/ where it's broken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 Power is going in behind the heater core area, but no power coming out. There is a single wire coming out to a double wire split, and one of those goes to the triple split that powers the relays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
