libertyherb123 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 G'Day Everyone. A while ago I was having some issues with my car losing power under load (up a hill) and have been unable to source the fault. I have seen some recommendations to replace a Brown 6 Pin Relay above the fuse box, part number 25232AA000. Has anyone had any luck replacing this relay and does anyone know what it does and how it could cause the problem if it was faulty? Cheers, Ryan.

TOONGA Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 that is the infamous brown relay, it is the ignition relay and when they get old the will affect the way the car idles and preforms. you can still get the replacement from Subaru from between 50 to one hundred US dollars depending on what country you live in Or you can take a chance like I did and grab one out of a wreck (mine still works) Or you can do what most Australians do make your own. http://www.ausubaru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19809 the other 2 relays are for the fuel pump and thermo fans. if you are up there you may as well replace them as well. they are about 20 to 30 US dollars each depending on what country you live in Or you can take a chance like I did and grab them out of a wreck TOONGA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

libertyherb123 Posted January 11, 2015 Author Share Posted January 11, 2015 Excellent, I have just ordered one from the States, $70 AUD, seemed much easier than making my own or relying on an old one from a wrecker. I am not a member as yet, will head over there now and join up. Thank again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
