Greetings Subie-folk,
I seem to have a problem w/ my windshield wipers on my 95 legacy...hoping someone can give me some advice.
I've noticed lately that the wipers are awefully loud and finally observed that the driver's side is overdriving (going past its designed stopping point before returning) and hits the a-pillar.
Does anyone know it this can be fixed by adjusting something or is it time for a junkyard visit to find a new motor assy?
Thanks,
Thorsten

Thanks for the replies, guys.
I actually did mine about 3yrs ago using the radio shack bulbs and they haven't failed yet, including two winters in NY state, so I would definitely recommend the radio shack bulbs if anyone has experienced that the OEM ones keep burning.
I needed the procedure for a colleague who just got his first legacy and found (of course) that his hvac control didn't light-up.
Take care,
Thorsten

Hey,
Does anyone have a link to a procedure to fix the hvac control light/led on the legacy.
I know Russ had one on his site, but it doesn't exist anymore.
Anyone else know who might have it?
Thanks,
Thorsten

patcal,
If you run out of options and need alternate professional help, I can recommend and independent subaru-only shop in the area (Oregon City). Check'em out: http://www.mttechsuba.com

Frag,
While you're at it, replace the ball joints and tierod ends, if you haven't so already...I recommend it highly. You'll feel much improved steering feel and stability.

Thanks for your replies guys.
Didn't think about repositioning the arm. I'll have to check it out.
I guess there's a possibility that something is stripped, because when first turning the wipers on, they do fine for first few swings (stopping well before a-pillar) before overdriving and hitting the pillar. It also seems they overdrive at the opposite end (judging by the noise) although I haven't verified this yet. Maybe the nut holding the arm is just loose...
