My subaru legacy 96 running tail lights don't work. The brake lights turn on, as well as the reverse lights, but the running lights are gone. The fuses are all good, and I think it might be the relay, but I don't know which one to check, or where it is. Is there something else that could be the problem?

fix dead head lamps first on all cars made 100 year running.
the work key on and key off or no key at all, by law here.

1. battery dead. load test it.
2. fuses blown
3. alternator died causing #1

You do know that on Subaru's there is a switch on the steering collum that runs the running lights? If that's off the mark, then check your fuses. The one you will be looking for is marked "tail" in the fuse box.

Did you change the radio recently..if so you tapped into the wrong wire...and if not then I would say you have a bad headlight switch or a broke ground dome where

Hi,
So, both sides are not working? Check for voltage @ the brake light bulb to see if you're getting power. Also, look in the fuses.

check out the online Subaru forums, too.

GL,

on older nissans dashoard and tail light is on same fuse. can you please check fuses on drivers side under your steering wheel? check #16.

The globes on tail lights are usually 2 elements so just because ur brake when pressed works doesnt mean the second part of the globe is working id buy new tail light globes or at least see if both little wires are going from one point to the other it looks like 2 little power lines .if top and bottom are both going to the other side tgen its another prob but if top or bottom line are broke then thats the problem hope i didnt confuse u but im sure u will get what i mean when u have alook at the globe

These assorted problems usually come from the control modules, in this case the transmission control module (TCM)
First, reset al ECM' by removing the battery negative terminal for a minute or so then re-fit it. This reset should cure all your problems. If not I shall consult my TSB's after you post the results of the reset.

You begin by opening the rear-lid.
Remove the plastic panel.
Turn backward the bulb-holder.
[This will make it come off its housing]
Push-in the bulb, and turn it backward.
[it comes off]
Reverse these steps for installation.

If this is a sedan, open the trunk and remove the bulb bracket for the burned out lamp from the rear of the tail light assembly by twisting it about 1/8 turn and then pulling it out. Now you can change the bayonet base lamp by pressing it slightly into the socket and turning it ccw just a small angle and the bulb will sping out. Installation is the reverse.

If this is a wagon, open the rear hatch, and behind the rear light assembly is a louvered plastic grate. Remove the grate by pushing the two plastic latch tabs toward the center of the grate and swing the grate out etc. Now remove the bulb bracket for the burned out lamp from the rear of the tail light assembly by twisting it about 1/8 turn and then pulling it out. Now you can change the bayonet base lamp by pressing it slightly into the socket and turning it ccw just a small angle and the bulb will sping out. Installation is the reverse.

did try the junk yard or the web sites on here
