Tinkering on a 2005 Outback 2.5i 5mt

regan · 02-12-2022, 11:51 AM

I have not had a suby in almost 10 years, but have owned a few in my life. Life throws curveballs sometimes so I had to down size some monthly payments. Picked up a 2005 Outback with 450000kms, and feel like having a little fun with it. I swapped brakes and got some wheels so far. Suspension is all worn out and is next on the list. Trying to remember how to post photos....

Nice!! I am working on a similar car. '05 Auto 2.5i for the GF. I just did an engine and a heater core, trying to button up the heater core but can't figure out where this connector goes. Comes right off of the accelerator pedal harness.

Perhaps you could take a look up under the dash and see if you could spot this connector. IOU a beer, if so.

Cheers, and good work on the project!

Looks like that connector sits about 6" closer to the driver's seat attached to the HVAC box right above the carpet.
