so my subaru is still going relatively well, just had another major service done at 210K and it was not cheap as I had to get the power steering pump reconditioned and all the timing belt, spark plugs, water pump and plus some bushing like the ones that hold the AWD rear diff (front and back), cracked CV boot and list goes on...
During the above service, I've provided a new neutral possition switch sensor as I had an engine light come up before (occasionally) with the error indicating a fault on that one.. so it appeared all good however, I was still unable to engage the cruise control.
Then at the service they found some blown fuses (2) and that my rear right light is not working even after a replacement and that I need an auto electrician to look at it, and in addition to that the break light switch wasn't responding to OBD scanner with ON/OFF which indicated a fault in it.
So I got a mobile auto electrical expert to rock up and he managed to fix the break light switch, but unfortunately the cruise control is simply not not engaging. When I press it, the CRUISE lits up, but setting it up by pressing the other level down does absolutely nothing.
OBD scanners are reporting everything fine and no errors are logged:
- neutral position sensor (when in neutral = OFF, when in gear = ON)
- brake light switch (ON / OFF)
- clutch switch (ON / OFF)
- Cruise control switch (ON / OFF)
- Acceleration / Set switch (ON / OFF)
so it all appears to be in running order, but it's simply not setting the cruise control... Any ideas anyone ? Cheers
