wolfpack572 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 2005 Outback after sitting idle for about 2 weeks now will start but not accelerate. Check engine light and cruise control light are on. Drive by wire problem? Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The car is trying to tell you what's wrong, read the code that's setting the check engine light. Anything else is random stabbing in the dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montana tom Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Unplug ,clean and reconnect elec. harness at throttle pedal . If your lucky that will work. I just had to replace the throttle assembly on an 06 obw . Seems the 05-06 years had connection issues , either at the pedal or out at the throttle body. If the computer loses signal from either end it reverts to idle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
