flashing cruise and solid check engine light

[ToddAndMargo]

Hi All,

Forrester 2006.

My cruise control no longer works. The
"cruise" flashed on and off. My "Check Engine"
light is on solid.

Any ideas? Or, is this a trip to my Subi
dealer?

Many thanks,
-T

Hi,
Read the OBD code. Think Pep boy does it for you. I have a reader for my
own use. You can buy one.

If the MIL light is on, for any reason, cruise light will flash and the
cruise won't work. Could be anything. If the MIL is on solid, its an
emission problem of some sort. Still could be a large number of issues.
You need to read the code to know for sure.
