porcupine73 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Hi Jake. There Must Be A Fuse Somewhere, Even If It Power Multiple Circuits. Can You Check The Pins With A Voltmeter To Verify They're Getting Power? AFAIK, They Only Come On When The Button Is Pressed And The Low Beams (But Not High Beams) Are On.

eventoday Posted December 9, 2006 Author Share Posted December 9, 2006 would a test light work to test the pins? i don't know much about electronics. but wouldn't you assume they are not because there are new bulbs. i have a friend with a 97 outback maybe i can look at there fuse box cover. thanks for any and all help jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 that's true, if they're brand new bulbs they should be fine. if the '97 is anything like my '96, fuse 6 (15A) in the fuse panel located under the dashboard is for the front fog lights. do you hear a relay click or anything when pressing the fog light button? fuse 6 is the sixth fuse from the upper left hand corner of the fuse panel.

eventoday Posted December 9, 2006 Author Share Posted December 9, 2006 i don't hear a click or anything. i'll check my fuse box and look for that one. thanks! jake 6th fuse from upper left hand corner. top row? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eventoday Posted December 9, 2006 Author Share Posted December 9, 2006 yes it worked. thank you so much. there was no fuse there. your cover doesn't say anything about a fuse for reverse lights does it. they don't work either jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 hi jake, yep sorry that was a little unclear, yes count left to right in the top row of fuses - sixth from the left. i saw another fuse or two for 'lighting relays' too so if that 6 fuse isn't bad it might be another fuse.

porcupine73 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 hi jake, yes, for reverse lights it says 'back-up light' and 'turn signal' are fuse 1 in the panel under the dashboard (that's the top left fuse). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
