Why is my AWD subaru only 2WD?
you will likely need to replace the following:
Duty C Solenoid
Transfer Clutch Pack
Reduction gear
All of these parts are located in the tail end of the 4EAT automatic transmissions. The reduction gear can separate from its hub and damage the above mentioned parts too.

Radiator Fan always on.
Doesn't take a technical engineer to find what could be the problem ! Looking a wiring diagram I see three relays that are used to turn on the cooling fans ! One of the relay's contacts are stuck closed causing Battery voltage to be applied to one of the fans when you turn the key to the on position . Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop .

Cranks but won't start
Well, let's see: fuel line/fuel filter blockage, bad or failing fuel pump, bad or failing carburetor, dirty or bad plugs, bad or failing plug wires or, in a car that old, residue in the gas tank fouling the fuel line. Also about a gazillion other things - chief among which is the distinct possibility it's jumped time. I've owned Subaru's since the 80's and can assure you that if you don't change the timing belt every 80,000 mi. or so, you'll eventually wish you had. You may well be at that point. Good luck, though. . .

Does it have a starter relay and, if so, where is it located?
USUALLY A BOX UNDER THE HOOD. YOU CAN SOMETIMESA TELL BY PULLING ANOTHER ONE THAT IS EXACTLY STHE SAME, SUCH AS HEADLIGHTS OR WIPER. IF YOUR HEADKAMPS OR WIPER WORK, AND THEY USE THE SAME RELAY, TRY PULLING THE STARTER RELAY AND SWAPPING WITH ONE YOU KNOW WORKS.

How do I fix brake light no light in rear
First check the fuses. Especially if all the lights in back are out at once. Then check the bulbs. Sometimes you have to replace bulbs that still look good, but just don't make good enough contact anymore.... A friend of mine had to replace all the bulbs to get any of them to work again. I have no explanation as to why.... Good Luck.... Sometimes on these older cars, just pulling the fuse and replacing it a time or two - cleans it off and gets it to work again.... Much like dirty battery cables can stop the flow of electricity, so can dirty connectors on a fuse, or bulb.
