Car Forum / Subaru Cars / May 2005Cruise light blinking, why?
The other day on my 2004 Legacy H6 Wagon (the new model with built-in navigation) I had the "CRUISE" light blinking continuously (+- right side, below the RPM disk). The functionnality was also disabled. It was solved by a "reboot", that is shutting the engine down and turning it back on. After that the cruise control was fully functional again. Anyone knows what that blinking light meant? First time it happened in several months and over 7500km.

The cure is also given in the manual. Thanks for answering. Yes, I have not looked at the manual about that yet. Would be nice to have a PDF version to keep and consult at home as well. I just made over 130'000 km with a Mitsubishi Galant extensively using the cruise control and, although it had other bigger annoyances, a similar issue never happened. Thus my post here, I was wondering if there were some specifics about Subaru cruise control solution. When it works, which is 99% of the time, it really is nice and smooth. On the Galant I could often feel a "localized resistance" when pressing down the accelerator, also when the cruise control was disabled. I also found the "resume" acceleration too strong.

I had a somewhat similar incident recently on my 2000 OBW, however the cruise light didn't start blinking it just went off and stayed off until the "reboot". It's probable that the cruise light behaviour is different because of our different model years. Yousuf Khan |
