Hi I have a 2010 legacy with the 2.0 boxer engine. Recently it came up showing 3 warning lights. Engine, ABS and one in the middle similar to anti traction. When these are on the cruise control and hill assist stop working. I can plug in a reader and code p1380 comes up. If I reset the lights it goes fine until the next time it starts and they return. Looking at the internet, apparently a faulty glow plug causes this to happen. This makes sense because they come up before the car actually moves anywhere. I have checked the glow plugs for resistance when cold (still in the block), there is very little room. 3 of them are reading around 1 and 1 of them is reading 1.7 Does anyone have experience of this or know if this is enough to trigger the sensors to put these lights up?

This is a problem I've read of on the forum before...have a search around and I'm sure you'll find something. Likely to be in the forester, legacy or outback sections I'd suggest

Thanks for the reply, I will have a search in the system.

Let me know if you get stuck and I'll have a rummage around too for you  :)

Replace all 4 glow plugs and it may have blown the fuse in the fuse box under bonnet very common , good luck in getting them out as they sieze and snap my advise get engine as hot as u can and carefully try to get them out

Hi Thanks, I tried to remove them yesterday, the engine was cold and they were stuck in pretty well. Went to start the engine to heat it and it would not turn over, nothing. The dash now has a (red) steering wheel flashing and the temperature sigh goes between red and blue. The fuel light also flashes. I haven't looked in to the cause, but something must have lost communication and hopefully it just needs a fuse or reset. I will check the fuse under the bonnet to see if it's gone but something must be stopping the engine turning over and it looks to be electrical.
