A/C Compressor problem
CJK440 replied to CJK440's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIt'll blow. A 20 won't blow but the clutch still slips.

A/C Compressor problem
The A/c system in my 96 Legacy GT crapped out. It keeps blowing the 10 amp AC fuse. If I temporarily jump the fuse the compressor clutch engages but starts to slip (you can see the clutch hub spinning with the belt then it skips etc). I assume the solenoid that engages the clutch is bad, its burnt out which doesn't grab like its supposed to and draws more amps than it should. I checked with chain parts stores and they want $300 for a compressor but don't list the clutch seperate. Any way to fix the clutch on this reasonably or should I look for a junkyard part.

Legacy power locks
Can anybody tell me where the relays are for the power locks in my 96 Legacy? All the doors lock when the pass side lever it hit but they don't always unlock. I found the door lock timer under the dash and it has tiny relays on that. Are those the only relays?? I'm pretty sure the switch is good because I feel & hear the relays click on the timer if I lock or unlock it.

Power locks on the blink
My 95 Legacy GT's power locks are acting up. If I lock the drivers side they all lock but they don't always unlock. I found the "Door lock Timer" under the dash. It has small relays on it. Are these the only relays??? I don't think its the actual door switch since when I actuate it, I can feel the relay click in the door timer. Maybe just a dead relay?

Intermittent Sunroof Operation.
CJK440 replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXMine is acting up too. It decided to stop working now. When I press the button to open it I hear a click like a relay clicking up in the roof near the drivers sun visor. Doesn't budge though.

Blue smoke
I noticed that my 96 Legacy blows some blue smoke at startup when cold, it goes away in a few seconds. On any other engine I would say this is valve seals leaking but am not sure with this engine arrangement. The car has 94k miles on it. 2.5L DOHC. What should I look for??

Knock sensor
CJK440 replied to CJK440's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI took the car to autozone. They scanned it and it showed the knock sensor code. I assume this was a residual memory code so I had the guy clear it. Lights off and all seems good.

Wheels????
My stock 15's are peeling and I figured I can get a set of aftermarket alloys for my 96 Legacy GT. The lug pattern is 5 on 100mm circle right??? What about backspacing & rim width?? Any sites that tell me what my car can use???

Scanning OBD2 codes
Any way to pull codes off my 96 Legacy without a scanner??? Like jumping some pins on the diagnostic connector and reading the Check engine light??? How about clearing codes??? Do I need a scanner to clear the codes???

Knock sensor
CJK440 replied to CJK440's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXOK, Took off old sensor, it had a white plug and the plastic body was cracked. I bought a new sensor, installed it (easy) and light is still on. I undid the batterey for 1 minute to clear it and nothing. ???? Maybe I have another issue.

Explain Torque bind
CJK440 replied to CJK440's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI'm familiar with a part time 4wd system, the bind occours due to the fact that the front diff carrier rotates at a different speed than the rear when going around turns. To prevent the binding a center "differential" needs to be used to allow the carriers to spin at different speeds. The Lecacy has something like this I guess. A viscous coupling?? Not familiar with the inner workings. My car is an automatic. I am not sure of tire circumference. The tires, allthough the same brand and size are shot and need replacing. But irregardless of my tire curcumference something has to give when turning. The operates fine in regular driving and regular turns. Only when the wheel is locked to one side does it feel like there is a bind. Maybe its a CV joint getting near lock, not sure. I just heard that "torque bind" is a common ailment of these cars and wondered if what I was experinceing was that.
