You need an OBDII computer a) to read the reason for the check engine light, and b) to reset the error code if you know what caused the light to come on. If you don't fix the condition that caused the light in the first place, it will probably occur again.

Code P0480 on a 1998 Subaru Legacy Outback indicates an issue with the cooling fan control circuit. To fix this, first, check the cooling fan relay and replace it if faulty.

Is the fuel pump the same on a Subaru legacy and Subaru legacy outback?

Pretty sure the fuel pumps are the same thru most of the Subaru lineup. The only difference would be between turbo and non-turbo models.

Subaru Outback cruise control fuse location?

Subaru has been building the Legacy Outback since 1995. Many changes in the control systems have occurred over those years. Newer models do not have a separate cruise control system, it is controlled by the ECM. On those models the cruise control is deactivated when the check engine light is on. If you care to provide more information we may be able to assist.
