It's not in the fuse box. Looking at the engine from the front it's in the top corner, marked FWD. You open it up and bam, there it is.
in the engine bay. Passenger side. Near the strut tower.
The Subaru Legacy is unique in its class because it does indeed have a standard all-wheel-drive system (AWD).
The differential between the axles controls the AWD on a 1996 2.2 Subaru Legacy Wagon.
Put a fuse in the circuit labeled "FWD" under the hood on the passenger side.
In a 2005 Subaru Legacy, the AWD to FWD fuse is located in the fuse box under the dashboard on the driver's side. You will need to remove the cover of the fuse box to access the fuses. The specific fuse is typically labeled as "AWD" or similar, so refer to the diagram on the fuse box cover for exact identification. Always ensure the vehicle is turned off before checking or replacing any fuses.
passenger side of firewall, near strut mount under the platic clip that reads FWD.

Nope. AWD was optional until 1998 when Subie decided to standardise their production.
Im not sure if this is your problem but the fuse to switch from awd to fwd is ground not hot. So if the wire is skinned somewhere and grounding out it could cause that.
i have the same problem on my 95.Heard it it may be the trans. solenoid or( clutch? )teeth gears worn. In the mean time put your fwd fuse in and its fine.
The short answer is yes.
theres a fuse labeled 4wd in main fuse box under the hoodpull that
