Help me from Switzerland....

[SoCal LS-L]

Good luck friend, hopefully you will be cruising in it soon!! Theres not too many better feelings than hearing it start up again after a long coma. Let us know what happens

Hello,

Subaru Switzerland does not have the following bulbs....
- Bulb switch antenne and
- Bulb switch mirror

See the pictures .....
Do you have difficulties to find the bulbs rectangular?

Thany you for the answers.

[Bricopassion]

For the bulbs, I have found the solution .....

I remove the bulb of rubber and I put a bulb for the computer material.

That's interesting you have a switch to raise and lower the antenna, US models just go up when you turn the radio on, and lower when you turn it off, or when the car is turned off.

Hello,

[SoCal LS-L]

Yikes! Bulbs from a salvage car?? For the trouble of putting them in id try my damndest to find new ones lol. Oh well, be sure to let us know what happens!

Very cool coloured bulbs - where did you souce the different colours from - outlet store name please... makes me want to try different ones out to see the effects....

There is a starter interupt relay under the dash bolted to the steering column in the US... This may be giving you issues as well. It is part of the security system

We can do things to our cars that they can't do to themselves. It looks like a lot of things are going on with it.

If your car started ok before your project began and doesn't start after you began your project there is a 90 % chance that you are the source of the problem... but not for sure.

I would suggest that everything needs to be back where it was originally and then we can help you if you describe exactly what it does.

Bon Jour Brico

What people normally do is buy the computer type bulbs as you have, and fit them into the square plastic housing to fit back in place. They have always been white, however, and we take off the green rubber sleeve from the old bulb and fit it to the new clear glass bulb.

There may be a number of people in your own area that can help you with the problems:

Currently a member here is MartyMcFly. Marty is in Austria, and he has contacts with the SVX club in Germany [www.svx-club.de ] and with members of the Subaru Club in Switzerland. [www.subaruclub.ch ]

You could try writing directly to Marty using the PM [Private Message] feature.

An ex-member who has not posted in a long while and is not on current membership is Kusi, who had the name SVXCH. Maybe Kusi sold his car and changed to a non Subaru, we don't know.

Looking back over old posts about 5 years ago there was a lady called Mrs Ramp who was responsible in the German SVX club for Swiss SVX members. To the best of my knowledge we only know of about 3 Swiss SVX owners, although it is likely that many more cars were sold. Not every owner joins a club.

Hello every body,

Thank you for the last answers…

Subaru Switzerland still has many parts but not the rectangular bulbs for the switchs...

Good idea to seek in the computer.....

I contact a Subaru agent...

After - I communicate you the problem...

So long and goodbye

I live and work in Japan, if you still parts (lights) I can call my dealer here in Sasebo to contact the factory warehouse here, I will need part numbers. Good Luck and safe driving!

Hello Tomodachi,

Thank you for your assistance.
I have found a solution:
I manufacture my bulbs….
I keep the support out of rubber and I replace the led by a new led.....
(see the picture)...


For information, the 2 bulbs are for:
- switch mirrors
- switch electric antenna

[Bricopassion]

Hello everyone,

For my car, the problem is the following:
The antenna of the transponder is broken...
The ignition key and the transponder do not communicate any more...
After all the connection switch - the engine start and stop immediately….
The part costs CHF 120.-(dollars 100.-)...
Also - I profit to make a second key - it is better.....

Thank you with all for your assistance.

Greetings of Switzerland
