Speed meter idles
this sounds like an ignition problem. change the spark plugs the flashing check engine light is for misfires and the most common cause is worn spark plugs. this can also be caused by old spark plug wires or a bad ignitor. now if your speedometer is not working that is electronic on this model. get the wiring inspected starting at the transmission end. if the wiring is good then replace the speed sensor
I have a 1997 Subaru Legacy Outback (Station
there are a couple of possible causes. I have found many older subaru's end up with poor ground connections for the fuel pump. Have the shop that changed the pump test the connection at the sending unit which is located behind the back seat under an access cover. if the connections are good then check the fuel pressure regulator. it uses rubber seals and they fail with age. lastly if the above items are good i suspect the fuel filter might need changing.
How to bleed a subaru outback cooling system
Sounds like the thermostat is NOT functioning, since when its removed you can (apparently) fill the system. So ... replace the thermostat.
Bleed the system as follows:
1. Fill the radiator. Put on the cap, then squeeze the top hose 6 times. You'll likely hear some coolant gurgling.
2. Remove the cap, top up again.
3. Start the engine and let it idle. In about 5 minutes or less, the thermostat will open and the coolant level will lower. Turn off the engine. Go to Step #1.
4. You likely need to do this 2 or 3 times, till the gurgling stops, and you are done.

the wires can get cut by the seat movement, these could be the wiring for heated seat that was an extra on some models. the motors can become stuck or even strip a cog. if its stopped working but fuse is fine i would think the bushes in the motor have gone you maybe able to change thes i think this part is still available if not it could be a new motor need, but befor this check the switch for the seat these are a common fault over time, you will need a meter to test the switch check its working and has power. you may need some help to do the next part. to check there is power to the motor while its out use a meter and check the volts at the motor plug and have some one press the switch in both directions. if there is power then the motor is at fault.
