An engine and tranny out of a 2004 forester fit in a 2005 legacy sedan? What needs to be changed, according to a salvage yard the engines in these cars fit only the 2004 and the 2005.

I am looking at a 1999 outback, with the enine and auto tranny fit from a 2004 wrecked forester? Needing to find a new home for this engine and tranny with 70k miles, hopefully this will work
-
On the 2003 forester, under the steering wheel, you have the ob1 connection plug, beside it is another plug, which it looks like a plug for testing, is this for the seat belts and the abs checks?
-
Finally, they are both working..... I did have to replace the fuse(#9), but it was still dim, i changed the relay, no help, come to find out the bulb itself had a short in it, where i would work on the other side fine, until you shook it lightly and it would dim again, i put a new bulb in it and it works great, thanks to all who helped.
-
There are no relays in the main fuse box under the dash. Do you mean the one under the hood?
-
No, the light on the dash is not working either, the high beam blue light.
-
Can you elaberate more on what this is, the switch ground system.
-
I changed the plug on the right side of the car, it is still showing a very low glow for the light, with the high beam no working at all. I have also check the ground, it seems to be ok. Does any one have a wiring diagram for the
2003 forester?
Thanks
-
Just noticed the right side light is very dim compared to the left. I took the light out of the headlight and put it in the left side and it is very bright. I also notice the left side dims, but the right side stays the dim light at all times. I have a grounding issue or a short. Does anyone have any suggestions, a headlight wiring diagram would be helpful, or any help.
Thanks
-
you know, it would help if i would read all the directions, i was no depressing the brake when it tried this before. retired it and guess what, works like a charm. thanks everyone for the help.
-
Would these systems be set up under a fuse to where it would not make the horn sound. I cannot get the system to work. Any help would be great.
-
ok, i have a remote, when i follow the instructions, about turning the switch from off to on 10 times, the horn does not sound. i have tried it several time even a few more time waiting for the horn to work, nothing. i did notice when i manuall locked the doors, with the door lock, when closing the door i heard a mild chirp and the park lights flashed. i just cannot the horn to sound when turning the switch. any suggestions, or what am i doing wrong.
-
Wow! Thanks for all that info. I am sure i will need it.

I HAVE A 2003 FORESTER. aLL ALL FORESTER EQUIPPED WITH THE KEYLESS ENTRY, EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT GET THE REMOTE IN THE X MODELS? IF NO WHERE ON THE CAR IS THE KEYLESS SYSTEM TO SEE IF MY CAR IS SET UP FOR THE KEYLESS ENTRY, BEFORE I PURCHASE A NEW REMOTE.

Does any one know of any 00-04 cars that need engine or tranny or both, reasonablly priced?
-
I have a 2004 wrecked in the front and back beyond repair. 70,000 miles. I would like to find a car that needs engine or tranny or both. Can you tell me what will take this 2.5 non turbo engine and auto tranny?
-
Well i got the old one off, i was quoted 110.00 at a local subaru dealership. Is that high or average price. Can you receommend somewhere else. I do thank you for the instructions to take it off. Is this a dealler item only? Or can you buy it at any local parts store?
-
I took it to a local mechanic that is knowledgable in the mechanics of the a/c system. The way he explained to me was that the system would recharge without a problem, no leaks, the presure got so high it would slow down the clutch and then blow it's top,(the presure valve on the side of the condensor would engage) i changed the ac compressor thinking that was the problem. I guess he probably know what he is talking about. What i could really use to you have the step by step directions on how to get to the expansion valve, that would truly help. My email address is subarucity@aol.com
-
Is there any way to tell if that is the problem before i tear into the dash?
-
took it to a local repair shop today, they tried to vac and recharge and it did the same thing. the said it appears to him that the expansion valve is either stoped or not working. has anyone had this problem before? i know it is behind the dash, how hard it is to get to? help!!in fl it is really "no cool " to have no a/c.
-
I have a 2003 forester. Had to replace the condensor. I ran a vacuum on the system, when i try to put in the 34a coolant, the conpresor starts to lock up. I though it was a bad compressor, i switched compressors and it did the same thing. Any help out there?
-
Thanks for the reply. This forester was hit in the right side, it hit the actuator and moved it out of it holder. I thoguht it would be best to do the exchange while i had it apart. I had a 2004 that i am using parts from. I am a decent mechanic, but what are you refering to as the tone ring? All of my fluids are normal, no leaking. I am here in fl, with no rust or salt, so the sensors shoud be ok. But who knows. Any help i would appreciate. By the way, i can pull a ob check for the engine, how can i check for the abs light, i know there is another plug under the dash beside the obs connection. What is this for, anyone know>
thanks again
-
I purchase this car that was wrecked, a 2003 forester. I changed the abs actuator, unplugged the main electrical connection. I bled all lines and made sure everything is back in place as before,now the light on the abs is on. How can i get it off?
-
The unit is a nippon denso. The unit itself is leaking. Thanks for replying. Does anyone have a use one?
Changing a tranny?

I am changing an auto tranny in my 2001 forester. I have noticed a difference from the one i installing from a 2004 forester. There is, what appears to be an oil filter on the front of the transmission at the bottom left. Also it appears to be on the front axles, that they are not using pins on the shafts, is this right? Any help would be a great appreciation.
