1995 subaru legacy electrical issue
Posted: Thu Mar 19, 2009 7:25 am
Hey guys,
I'm having a issue with my legacy and was hoping someone might be able to give me a hint where to start.
The car was running fine since I got it, last night I parked in my garage, in the morning tried to start the car, and it just keeps turning over, without igniting.
So far i've checked, the battery which is fine and holding charge, the engine is turning so I beleive the starter works fine. Checked the fuel pump and line, disconnecting the pump from the engine, it would pump fuel when trying to start the car.
I checked the coil, disconnecting it and using a multimeter, one lead grounded to the chassy, the other checking each of the three wires individually, i think its blue red and yellow none of them jumped in voltage when trying to start the car.
So my guess is its a fault somewhere between the ignition from the key and the power getting to the coil.
Any chance anyone knows of possible places to check? and does anyone have a wiring diagram for a 1995 liberty heritage?
Also the car has an immoboliser, although the engine is turning over, im not sure if an immoboliser would stop the starter motor, or just the coil?
thanks!
Tim
