Not concerned about second fan. I ts the main cooling fan on far right side that is not coming on when car comes up to heat. Fan not coming on no matter how long you run car. New thermostat changed antifreeze and checked fuses and fans. thanks

Thank you for the great info. I did that test by hooking up the 2 green wires under dash. Both fans came on and work great. So now is it the relay you talked about under the dash ??? If so whats it look like and on what side is it. thanks

The ac not running. No belt pump froze up. Not worried about that one . Its the fan on passenger side not working. Did not test fan yet. Where is the relay that tells fan to turn on and off ??? Or what controlls fan ??? thanks

Thanks guys for the great info. Son seems be be helping if I can keep him out there long enough to watch and learn. First thing he has to learn is you dont have to run into the house and wash your hands every time you get some grease on them. Seems to be more worried about cleaning out the inside car then about if its gonna run right. Way out in the sticks here so have no where to work on car but outside. Will check out fan again. Had same problem on another Impreza but its been so long ago I forgot what I did to fix it. Thanks again

Same 95 Impreza 2.2 I been working on for my son. Last owner did nothing but drive it. So far put new rear seal in trans, changed oil, new antifreeze and thermostat. Fixed power steering pump leak and put new belts on. Still have to replace front left cv joint that has no boots. Want to get cooling fan to work. Checked both fuses, not blown. How do I test fan with out frying it ? And if fan is good what else can it be. Checked plug leads from fan and they are clean. Need some help. thanks

Replacing but what end goes toward engine ? Dont trust what other owner may have done to car. He just drove it till it was about dead. thanks

Want to change thermostat . Would a bad one make hoses colapse when car cools down ???? thanks

Thanks for the info. Will check that tube to see if blocked. Also will redo seal again with a Subaru seal. Just how do you tell how deep to seat the trans seal ??? I went all the way in till the seal stoped. Was I right in doing that ??? thanks

95 Impreza l wagon 2.2, awd auto trans. Replaced rear trans seal and still has leak. When I took the drive shaft down the old seal came right out with it on the yoke of the shaft. I did not see any damage to shaft or rear of trans where seal sits. New seal I put in was a good tight fit. Was worried cause the guy that had this car before me let this go a long time. Drove it down the road and the car still shifts fine. Now if I can just stop the leak. And yes that is the only place the leak is coming from. What did I do wrong ? Need some answers.

I read your post on front seal replacement. Great info !! I have to do the rear trans seal on a 95 Impreza sport wagon I just picked up for my sons first car. Would like to know what problems I may run into. I know I have to drop the cat converter to remove the heat sheild first. Are there seals between the cat and the pipes ?? And will be able to get at rear seal since it sits so deep in rear of trans ?? thanks wrongturninswv@wmconnect.com

Thanks for the quick reply. One less thing to worry about.

2001 Outback H6 3.0, loaded. Headlights stay on till car is turned off. Will not turn all the way off by switch. Are they made like this or is there something wrong ?

After changing CTS, (which was no fun to get at) I checked plug to fan connector, and also changed the 4 fan relays in the fuse box on inside left front fender. Relays that I knew were good from my wifes wrecked 96 Outback. Changed things all at one time cause I needed car working fast. Fans now work. Just hit and miss. I just got to get back in the habit of listening for the fans to come on and off again. I am older now and cant hear as well as I used too. I found out a long time ago on the older Subarus you cant always trust the temperature gauge inside the car. Open the hood once in a while, turn down the radio, take time to look around and listen. This will save you alot of money down the road. The computer in you car can only tell you so much,the rest to keep it running right is all up to you. Thanks again guys

Thanks.... got fan working again!! Great info thanks to all you guys on this site.

So you are saying the sensor at the front of the engine is the one that controls the fan. I found the other sensor is under the PCV valve buried by the wiring harness.

Please explain which coolent temperature sensors do what. I know of 3 on the 95 Impreza 1.8 engine. Need to know which sensor turns on and off the main cooling fan when the engine starts to get hot ??? Also found a sensor plug on bottom of my power steering pump. What is that one for ??? thanks

Went outside and it started right up again. All the might be this and could be that will make me replace all kinds of parts. We know now the battery is not the problem, its new its tight and the cables are clean. It is 3/4 full of gas and if it was not getting gas it would not start.So fuel pump must be good. We are getting spark now but not eariler this afternoon. Put brand new plugs in today as I said eariler. Coil pack must be good or it would not run. Ignitor module must be good too then right. No code or check engine light and never was. I'm lost here.The Subaru dealer will take my next 3 SS checks if I take this one in to the shop. What do I do besides push it over the hill.

Is the coil pack on the 95 Impreza 1.8 the same as on the 2.2 and 2.5 or are the plug ends different ???

Fully charged battery, good alt. How do you check these sensors and where do I find them ???? Car was running fine. It turns over fast and thats all. It has no spark. Cant smell any fuel. It did this twice before but got in it next day and started right up.

Put new plugs gaped at 44,and plug wires. Bought spark tester from Advance and find no mater which plug wire I hook on to no spark at all. Even held wire in hand while wife cranked car no spark. Now what ???

Some times it will ,and some times it wont. What size socket do the plugs take? Cant get anything I have to go down in that hole. When it starts it runs just fine. No miss, no smoke, and will not bogg out when down to the floor.

Went back outside and looked under the hood to see if I missed anything,lose wire or blown fuse. I called the car everything but a Subaru. I got inside for 1 more try and it started right up. You tell me cause I sure dont know.

First time for this. Ive had dozens of Subarus and when nothing else would start on the coldest days out here a Subaru always would. Its a 95 Subaru Impreza 1.8, 5 speed, fuel injected,4x4. Never had any problems,ran great. Left sit about 3 weeks and now will not start. Full tank of gas,new battery. Turns over like crazy but either no spark or fuel is my guess. This is the first fuel injected so I need a bit of help.So what should I check first and how do I go about it ??? What kind of testers do I need ???

95 Impreza 2dr coupe. Left brake light is dimmer than right. I changed all bulbs and replaced with new ones. Checked wires for bare spots and found none. Bulb sockets are clean inside. I do have a good ground. Right side brake and trunk lid break working fine. Also found when I push down on the brake that you cant see clock light on radio till you let off of it. I unpluged all 3 lights to left side and clock light stays on when brake is pushed down and works fine. What could the problem be. All other lights on car working fine.
