- In the cabin: Behind a small removable panel in the driver's side kick-panel, below and to the left of the steering wheel.

How to test a fuse
- Turn the vehicle off.
- Remove the fuse with a fuse puller (usually included in the fuse box lid).
- Hold the fuse up to the light. If the thin metal strip inside is broken, the fuse is blown and needs to be replaced with a new one of the same amperage.
Common blown fuses on this vehicle
- 12V Outlet (Cigar Lighter): This fuse often blows when a faulty phone charger or other accessory is plugged in. Check the device you were using for damage before replacing the fuse.
- Radio / Infotainment: If your radio or touchscreen suddenly goes dark, this fuse is the first thing to check.
- Headlights: If one of your headlights is out, it could be the bulb or the fuse. Check the fuse first, as it's the easiest to replace.
Always verify the fuse locations and amperage with the diagram printed on your vehicle's fuse box lid, as trim levels and manufacturing dates can have slight variations.

Before you pull a fuse on the 2022 Subaru Outback
- Use the label printed on the panel cover or the owner's manual for your exact build. Layouts change with options, model year and build date, so a chart for another truck can be wrong.
- Replace a blown fuse only with the same amp rating. A larger fuse can let wiring overheat.
- A fuse that blows again right away means a short or failing component downstream. Find the cause before replacing it again.
- A good fuse doesn't prove the circuit works — relays, grounds and connectors fail too.
- Disconnect the battery before working near high-current fuses or cables.
