JonOfScio Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 some '95 up and all '96 are OBD-II my EJ22 1995 Legacy was OBD-II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Clark Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 If their reader didn't fit, you have OBDI, simple as that. You'll have to use the blinking CEL method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. RX Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 96 Imprezas are OBD I, which is why I get the old style emissions check instead of getting my car hooked up to their computer through an OBD II port. That is a good thing since I'm not running the stock engine, an OBD II check would tell them that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olnick Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 I thought all US cars were required to be OBD-II compliant starting with the '96 model year. Some manufacturers started early, Subaru in '95--at least with the Legacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbird Man Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Some companies were able to fudge through loopholes but had to switch over asap, Subaru was one. funny thing is I think the Legacys were OBD-II in 95 or so, weren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrturbo Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 there are two sets of connectors up inside the dash one set green and the other black if i remember correctly. you need to connect them and it will flash the codes through the cel. get a manual before doing this, they tell you where the connectors are located and which ones to plug in. advance will have the manual, its a haynes titled computer trouble codes.
