The computer they replaced was for the cruise control. When I truned my lights on, and my parking lights on to drive at night, my ABS warning light would come on and shut off my cruise control. No, I do not think I was taken for a ride Thank you I apperciate your information. I talked it over with the boss of the garage.

To everyone that helped . . . THANK YOU:clap: I finaly took my car to the garage. I found out that that it had three things wrong, and they were WAY over my head:-\ First my headlight switch was bad second there was a computer that went bad and the last was a short in the tail lights! I greatly appreciate everyones help Thank you:headbang:

Gentlemen, johnceggleston and nipper, PLEASE, I need help with my electrical . . . not your travels?!?!? thank you. Nipper you have provided the most information. I gather you like Hayes manual? Where would i find the illumination relay within the manual? is there a year specific manual for 2000 Outback's. What would be next in line to check?

Cougar, Where would I connect the grounds to? The lights? The fuse box? The headlight/ turn signal switch? I am not that good with electricty. The basics i can understand. thanks

I have checked my fuses, and they are all working. The "parking light switch" works that is how I get my running lights to come on. Any other suggestions? Thanks so far!

Ok Gentleman, I think that the information that I gave might been misleading, this is right out of the owner’s manual. Headlights To turn on the headlights, turn on knob at the end of the turn signal switch lever First position Parking lights, instrument panel illumination, tail lights and license plate lights are on. Second position Headlights, parking lights, instrument panel illumination, tail lights and license plate lights are on Here is what is happening, I turn on my head lights on, and the only thing that comes on are my headlights and my instrument panel illumination. NO parking lights, NO tail lights and license plate lights. To get my parking lights, tail lights and license plate lights to come on I have to turn on my parking light switch. With both parking light switch and the headlight switch turned on, my ABS warning light comes on, and disables my cruise control.

I have a 2000 Subaru with "some electrical issues, These are the symptoms: First, my light switch ONLY turns on my head lights. To get my running lights to come on, I have to turn on my parking lights (the switch on top of the steering column). My break lights, when I depress my break peddle, it lights up all of my running lights along with the break lights. Now with the lights on, and my parking lights on, my ABS warning light comes on, and disables my cruises control. I borrowed a manual from the library with no real trouble shooting ability. Can any one help please? Thank you :banghead: Thank you to ShawnW for getting me on to the CORRECT path. Greatly appreciated.
