Ok been a member here for about 2 years now and posted a couple of times then lost my counts with the moves. So here is my question. Is there a light on the consol for the Auto Tranny selector on a 98 Outback? I'm getting a little older and my memory is starting to fade in and out. Last night I noticed that there wasn't anything lighting it up. I usually use the car back and forth to work and usually durring the daylight hours so I haven't really noticed. I know that these care are indicator light challenged so I was just wondering. Thanks for the help. Jim

there is a light. i had to change the one in my legacy a few months ago. its pretty easy to change yourself, you jst nee a phillips screwdiver. if you need some help let me know.

I have the same problem with my '95 Legacy. It used to be intermittent for a while before it completely went out. I think it is the bulb. The only thing I could find in Haynes was how to remove the console cover. Nothing about the bulb or how to replace it. Where can I get more information or directions for replacing the bulb? I greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

you have to remove the center console cover, the shifter handle, and the cover for the shifter ( the part with the trans indicator. the bulb is on the side underneath the indicator cover

I dont know about your car but mine says what gear I am in on the guage cluster. I rarely look at the console.

mine shifter is mounted in the center console. 97 legacy gt

So is mine but it tells me what gear I am in on the dash as well. Thought they were all like that..
