If you are referring to the Car Subaru, obviously you haven't preformed the test to really be able to know what you are talking about... the test that I so kindly laid out for you.

If you are referring to some Subaru mechanic that probably doesn't know which end is up, simply test yourself on your SVX. By their own admission most will tell you that electrical is not their expertise.

I naturally belong to AAA, the 150 mile one, as do all SVX owners. I always make a point to take my cell with me, even if it is just to go out the door to feed my dogs. So I am in pretty good shape cell wise.

Again, simply perform the test on your own SVX. This is a no-brainer.

Take care,
Keith
