Commuter Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 My vent settings are 'stuck' as I posted about recently. In doing some eBay and internet searching, I'm encountering 2 different listings for the control units. 95-97 and 98-99. Some listings though are indicating that the units were the same across all these years, or at least compatible. Does anyone know? Eg will a 98-99 unit work ok in my 1997 Legacy Outback? Just from the pictures, I can see that the blue/red temperature band was changed from a continuous solid bar to a dashed colored bar. I guess that could be enough to have generated a new part number. Otherwise, it looks identical. My concern is whether the electrical connection / circuit board is the same or not. I'd hate to buy a unit and then find out that it doesn't hook up. Thanks.

TheLoyale Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 From what I remember, they are all the same (Size/shape) few little changes light you said. But should pop right in. Be carful not to loose the E-clip that holds the lever cable to the box (Hard to fine one that works other then the proper one) Cheers, -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmark7 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 unhook the cable from down below, not the unit itself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vasy Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 You can probably find your answer from this site: http://www.subarupartsforyou.com/index.php It has good info about what part # is for what model/year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
