Hi folks - I'm driving a '96 Legacy wagon, my first Subaru and it's been a great car.
I don't know much about automotive service, but I prefer the idea of doing things myself, rather than pay someone, when it's a simple fix. (So far the only thing I've ventured to do myself is replace the headlight connectors, which melted. My local mechanic wanted $300 to do the job, but I went to a "Pick 'n' Pull" auto yard and found parts for $15, which I replaced with electical tape).
Anyway, my present problem is with the automatic window in the driver's door - the switch has become finicky and sometimes refuses to close the open window. I have a suspicion, that like my headlight problem, this could be a simple electrical fault that I may be able to repair myself. But I'm a little bit frightened of pulling apart the door to get a closer look. I don't want to wind up pulling the thing apart and not being able to get it back together again, either because it's too complicated, or because I broke something by pulling when I should have unfastened. Can anyone give me some guidance about dismantling and 'remantling' that door successfully? And/or any insight into my window problem?
Thanks so much. barnz1 ...to reply by email modify the address in the obvious way...
